      @seanocono:

      I'd like to see the trainer a few times to lock in my form, and then use the Skogg system to follow a disciplined regimen, on my own.  I will probably check back in with the trainer, every couple months, just to make sure my form stays tight.

                Adam raises hand…again...I'm probably down for a GR1 if we can make a sweet patch to put on it.  However, I will need plenty of notice on the date.

                  And yes I could not agree more Doug is quite the asset to this joint.

                              All in!  I'll get a GR1.  Much thanks for all the work that you guys have put in.  Like the pack, I'm sure this experience will come with a lifetime guarantee of awesome memories…

                              BTW, excellent choice on the date.  I love palindromes...4114...

                                Ok, glad to hear it Adam!

                                Today's effort,

                                Tabata method 4x30sec on 10 sec off
                                medicine ball lunges R&L
                                medicine ball push ups

                                ax handle into a slam w/ medicine ball
                                crunches full extension R&L

                                jog in place while pressing medicine ball

                                planks
                                Russian twist w/ medicine ball

                                battling ropes

                                felt really good to get after it, going to start getting aggressive on my training in the coming weeks

                                  Thanks for the post, Z.  I really enjoy reading alternative workout ideas.  My training has always been fairly standard, and new ideas don't come naturally.

                                  I am finally done entertaining family and friends for the foreseeable future.  It was fun, but I'm glad to get back to my daily routine.  I signed up for a direct-from-the-farm, organic vegetable delivery service with the intention of diving fully into this Paleo thing (I'm really excited for this).  I'm also attempting to ramp up the training in the coming weeks.  I will post progress and look forward to reading everyone else's progress as well.

                                    Work has been insanely crazy, but I've been doing a 250 air squat and 100 push-up challenge to get myself somewhat started. Doing DDP yoga tonight. Might ride my bike Sunday after turkey hunting. You guys count me in, I need to pick out a pack.

                                    Fat dudes need good clothes too.
