Mr. Mellow on the Loose

The pinK tiger is back! And today, December 1st, was a great day to start my morning with Adventure camp because this was my Birthday. Oh, wow, the years keep rolling. I am beginning to understand how people really become confused keeping track of their age, because they simply stop counting! Lol!

When I came inside the fitness studio, there was a very subdued vibe going on. I didn't know what it was at first, but soon I knew.

Our healthy vibrant coach had been whacked by the flu, cold, whatever you could imagine, and he was indeed subdued. I felt so sorry for him! Its one thing to do a solitary, quiet desk job when you feel like crap and just want to pull the covers up over your head. But this job required you to put forth personality, converse with a roomful of women, and demonstrate exercise options! That requires a load of inner emotional resources that sometimes doesn't feel accessible.

I don't know about anybody else, but it was another testament to the dedication, the very personal loyalty that Brian brings to his job and to us as his clients. I only hope I can reciprocate equal loyalty and dedication to him by how hard I work in camp.

Today, Brian had designed a program to work the shoulders and chest. Believe me, it was unbelievable! LoL! One exercise we did was to lay on our side and tuck our arm towards our chest, and do a side push up. It was an exceptional workout for our shoulders!

We did some wall push-ups for the chest which I liked, and ran against the wall for some cardio.

Within about 20 minutes of the class, Sleek&Chic looked at me and said, "Wow, Brian's really mellow today, isn't he?"

Ah, yeah, he was not his usual dynamic, charismatic self, but I'll tell you what! Mr. Mellow kicked it up a few notches BiG time, regardless! He wasn't going to let us slack because he couldn't go full throttle!

Brian had us do a series of exercises going back and forth from high knees, to speed squats; High knees, then speed squats; etc.

Oh My God! Mr. Mellow is ramping it up and killing us! This was one of the most intense shoulder workouts I can remember doing. And he was floorin' the cardio portion with his special designer mix!

Well, what can I say? I sure hope you feel better Mr. Mellow, but what have you got in store for us when you're ready to do somersaults?!

Oh.......... My........... God! Then "The Brian" will be on the loose! :)

Mr. Mellow, you put this little tiger through a hard core Birthday workout that I will never forget. Gonna get some sexy and shapely shoulders. Can't wait till tomorrow!

the pinK tiger......

......lovin' that Mr. Mellow........
