Original title of this blog post was The Importance of Play and Exploration in Fitness--Even for Grownups, but I though that sounded too academic, especially since I wasn't going to throw around any stats.

Hyperwear Hyper Vest Pro Unisex 10lb Weight Vest
Hyperwear sent me this incredibly cool weight vest for review, and I'm very happy to say that it has performed beyond my expectations.

An Exercise in Adaptation / Regression of a Classic Pavel Plan for Kettlebell and Bodyweight
There was some mention on the Dragon Door forums of "Pavel's Force Recon Workout" and of course I had to check it out. After digging around and following a few links, then comparing them to make sure everything matched up - I found quite an evilly difficult little gem of a program.
