Saturday morning fitness freaks!!

What a jam packed Saturday morning.

4:15 wake up to make sure I was awake and at the beach by 5.

Traffic in Bunbury is great this time of the morning... No one on the roads, probably because everyone else is smart enough to still be in bed this early.

First stop, beach training session with my pupil. Sled towing, bicep workout, stair climbs and sled pulling, not to mention the warm up jog along the beautiful coastline.

We got a few stares and told we were crazy from a fisherman but once you start, the rest of the world becomes a distant focus. All you can think about is reaching the goal.

After about an hour the session was over and my pupil was feeling it. I had a small amount of time to burn so I downed another black coffee before my next meeting at 7.

By 7 I was at another friends house to go with him on a jog. There is sometimes no better motivation then that of a gentle push you get from not wanting to let someone down. So the fact I was there, and there for one thing only, made it all that much easier to start the jog.

For a chap that hasn't jogged or been physically active for a long time he did fairly well. I think sometimes people are surprised at what they can actually push their body to do.

The jog went for about 40 minutes all up and then it was off to do my own workout session. 8am the gym opens so the timing was impeccable.

Still hadn't had breakfast yet, so I planned to have a decent breaky once I got home to keep me fueled for the day ahead.

One last stop at the shops before I went home to grab some more eggs.

Home. Ahhh what a morning.

I reflect on what we had all achieved in such a small space of time while I choked down on my oats and protein powder and then a helping of scrambled eggs.

Rest for now... Then it all starts again for another week come Monday!
