  • Q was a bit slow on the chalk application this am

  • Rep numbers were fairly random and shared just before the sets so as to not let the crew get too comfortable

  • Overheard during the workout when somebody reached for their 25lb dumbbells: “I yam what I am” (Popeye reference)

  • Polyp removed during the colonoscopy was apparently the size of a Mike & Ike and/or Hot Tamale candy

  • There was an official ruling that a “fairway re-tee” during a golf round is not at all legit

  • Overheard during the workout: My name is Humpty. Pronounced with an ‘umpty. Yo ladies, oh how I like to thump thee

  • Due to copyright protection, the “OH Pull Crunch” exercise can only be mentioned and performed with the express written consent of El Tigre

  • Question: “Ever hear of propophol?” Answer: “Hee hee” (in a Michael Jackson tone)

  • This morning’s humidity levels were ridiculous. Or was it the workout?

  • Lake Norman is celebrating their 10 year anniversary with a convergence on Saturday August 21.They are trying to have every subregion (including your very own MIL) help do a portion of the workout. Looking for some support, and additional details to be shared.

  • Great work men!!!!
