Hi guys and gals!

Myself and a number of friends from work have been doing workouts at lunch time in the little park behind Lynnmour Elementry School in North Vacnouver.

We meet at 12:05 sharp at the park (we actually run from our work located near by) and typically do the following workout(s).  Taken from Craig Ballantyne's Turbulence training we are currently following the 6-month body weight training manual. 

This typically comprises of:

5 min warm up (our run to the site)
