Mt. Tabor Summit, 1128 steps plus run.
Since November 2011, my training clients and boot camp crew have been meeting every Sunday at 9a.m. to explore and climb the various steep and challenging stairways of Portland. Our first location was Jackson Middle School, to initiate us all into the world of stair running and climbing. [...]

Now almost 3 weeks post-op from extensive arthroscopic surgery to repair my shoulder (torn labrum from multiple dislocations), I have decided to do the best with what I’ve got.
Rehab at this point is slow, only passive movements, and painful. I am watching the muscles on my right arm that I have worked so hard over the [...]

I believe workouts should not only be strategic in targeting the goals and needs of my group, but also be fun. Who wants to do the same workout over and over again? Not only do you run the risk of over-use injuries due to the repetitive movements, but, let’s face it, predictability is not that [...]

There’s nothing like a Tabata Tuesday to get me moving in the morning. Tabata’s are one of my favorite workouts that I’ve learned from working out with Dana. After a warm up, quick kettlebell skill work and learning a few new tricks, we move on to the Tabata’s, which is the main part of the [...]

The other morning there was a brief moment when I thought, “Who am I?” First, it was about 6:49 a.m. and I was in an elementary school gym working out (I am not known to be a morning person). Second, I was swinging a kettlebell (a year ago I had no idea what a kettlebell [...]
