Brutal Brian strikes back!

Whoo hoo Brian is all business this week with me, and I love it. Don't get me wrong, I throw him evil eyes and pouts and stares, and every bit of it hurts, but I don't even dare to complain to him. Tonight was another total body workout, and it was all changed up from the TBW on Monday. Moving from one exercise to the next so quickly, and doing higher sets of reps really makes it as much of a cardio workout as a strength training one. Whew! I felt great walking out of there!!!
I call him Brutal, but I mean it in the most respectful way! I would never ever have worked out so hard alone. He pushes me to maximize every second there. I really appreciate it, despite my whiny complaints.
My friend Crystal is going to come workout with Anna at the same time I work out with Brian tomorrow----it will be a fun time!

Hi Erik,

Anna is great. Crystal enjoyed her. One of the nice things about having several trainers is that they all do things a little differently. So, when you've been working with say Brian for a bit then have a session with Dorothy or Billy or Anna, it keeps things fresh!
So you have 10 pounds left, so you must be down four---yay!
Erik, I didn't think I'd be saying this in the beginning, but I think I'm going to miss your motivational commentary here on the blogs---you've become my one-man online cheering squad!!!
