The past six months have been a mix of old school backyard workouts, body weight excersise, crossfit, running, kettlebells, and free weights. Needless to say, I've seen tramendous results from when I started on this voyage.

In the past month, my coworkers and I have ended our PT sessions running up and down the stairwell of a 4 story building, 4 times, while wearing 25 pound weight vests, and carrying heavy sandbags, ending each set with pushups, crunches, and planks.

Hey that sounds. I do my kettlebell workout 3 times a week and I also boxing, kickboxing and mixed martial arts 4 times a week. I have been trying to get my hands on a weight vest to use in our new firehouse that as way more stairs than the one but I have been unsuccessful. The New firehouse has a fitness room in it but no equipment yet and we are looking for donations from local gyms for used equipment but the person in charge of that doesnt seem to be trying nor succesful.
Oh well, stay safe and keep moving.

I've been running and using the elliptical for the last twp years. I'velost some weight, but more important, have definitely gotten back into shape. I feel like a lightweight after reading a lot of your workouts. Is there anyone that just runs?
