Weight training
ScottWeightTrainFrame Weight training has numerous benefits, among which are building of metabolism-boosting, fat-burning muscle, and increases to strength, endurance and overall well-being. I workout at LA Fitness, usually at the Scottsdale gym (Scottsdale Rd and McDowell) with my workout partner, Troy, but I can sometimes be found at the Mesa location (Gilbert and Southern) and occasionally at the Town/Country location (Camelback and SR51). I usually workout 4X week.

Hiking
ScottHikeFrame Growing up, I was petrified of heights (or perhaps more precisely, of falling from a high place). Hiking has helped desensitize me to heights (although you still won't find me getting close to the edge of a cliff), helps with balance, leg and ankle strength and cardiovasular endurance, and is simultaneously strenuous and relaxing. You can see things on a hike that you cannot see any other way.

Always hike with a buddy or at least on a highly populated hiking trail. Make sure you carry plenty of water, some bandages and antiseptic, and something to snack on. Finally, it's usually easier to hike up than to hike down -- important to bear in mind when deciding how far to hike and when to turn back.

If you're a guy of masculine demeanor in reasonably decent shape, e-mail us and we'll see about us going on a hike.

Traveling
Scott on Fanning Island I enjoy exploring new cities on foot or using public transportation. I find it's the best way of seeing things and you don't have to worry about parking (which is a hassle in some cities). Like with hiking, when on foot, you see things you just can't see when in a car. I think you get a better sense of the place. Chicago

Music
Scott Cooking]

I enjoy both listening to music and writing/performing. The music that I enjoy listening depends on what I'm doing and my mood, and includes alternative (rock), hard rock, pop, hip-hop/soul, country-and-western, folk, latin, jazz, and new age.

The music I have written and enjoy performing is more limited, and includes pop, country-and-western, folk, instrumentals and musical theatre.

Food
Scott Cooking] I saved the best for last. Eating good food is one of my favorite things to do (another reason why hiking and weight training are so valuable to me). I enjoy most types of food, but find I can't eat too much Cajun, Thai or Indian food because of spices that disagree with me. Dinner with Friends
