You know how I know I am old? I still read hard copy magazines and one of my favorites is Men’s Journal. It has all kinds of cool stuff in it and actually pretty good articles. One of the recent articles I read was titled “The 30 Best Body Weight Exercises for Men”. As soon as I read it, I thought, I can turn this into a pretty good weinke. I am not sure what the rest of the Pax thought of it but I think it turned out alright. We had one down range member today from NOLA. Thanks for coming out Sandbar!
