Simplify 2017

One of my personal initiatives in 2017 is to simplify my life. Life has become too complicated for this simple man. Too fast. 24/7 email, online news, social media, internet screens everywhere, all the time…stop the madness. So in order to help me move forward with this, I devised a deviously simple workout. For the record, there’s a difference between simple and easy.

7 strong showed in the gloom to start the week at Martha’s House. I woke up around 3:00 am to some serious rain and wondered how bad it would be at 5:30 am…..it wasn’t, I could see a few stars.

Great work men. This is a workout I occasionally do myself when I can’t post for some reason or am travelling. However, the pace was a little (maybe significantly) quicker than I normally do it. My goal was to keep us moving and keep the heart rate up for the majority of our time together this morning and focus on a few different muscle groups. I appreciate the opportunity to lead another morning workout and hope it was worth your time.

As always, it was an honor to lead.

Until the next one. Aye!
