Hard Core Playground Workout

Overhand horizontal chest up (November Project)

In case you haven't heard of The November Project, it's an "open source" fitness program featured in a lot of major cities around the US, built around the idea of a group of people getting together in open spaces to workout together, while cheering and motivating one another on. They have been featured in a series of article on NPR that caught my eye, which provides a playground workout for every level of fitness.  The latest one is a hardcore gonzo playground workout for those in really good shape who want a challenge.  I plan to try this one over the weekend.     … [Read more...]

I've always hated exercise and getting on the floor, out of the question. Eight weeks ago, I didn't know what to expect or if I could successfully do the program. Philip was so patient with me and trained me at a level that I could sustain. I have never been excited about working out. I actually began to look forward to working out with him. At the end of the eight weeks, I feel stronger, I have more energy, and my sleep has improved. I'm even down seven pounds. I was so pleased with the results that I signed up for an additional eight weeks. Thanks Philip!  (Individual results may vary)
