Happy New Year

Wanted to start the year off wishing everyone a Happy New Year.  This year Deirdre and I brought in the New Year by making a home cooked meal together topped off with a chocolate mousse cheesecake and a champagne toast at midnight (pics will be posted on my myspace very soon.

With that all said and done....I want to apologize for not updating in timely manner.  On Dec. 17th I went to a specialist to get my hernia checked out.  He pointed out that I had two....one above the hernia and another right on the belly button.  I then scheduled an appointment to get it taken care off on the 20th.  The surgery went well and the recovery was very fast.  Thanks to the arnica, antibiotics, and pain killers I was up and moving in by Christmas Eve.  Due to this procedure I had some quality down time that allowed me to sit down and reflect on the year and set goals for myself to accomplish in 08.  I consider myself to be very driven and the downtime due to the surgery gave me time to recharge my battery and get ready for 08.

With that all said it done I wanted to share a functional circuit with you that I put my final clients of 07 through.  Any questions please feel free to comment.

Circuit One (2 times through)

Stepmill 2 minutes (moderate pace)
