What a BUSY, but fun weekend...Monday rolls around and here we go - catch up here there and everywhere.....before I knew it the kids were off the bus, homework and off to work - NUTS! Everyone is starting to come out of the woodwork now that it's cold and rainy - yipppppeeeeee! So happy to have a full house!!!! Thank you Meredith for brining your friend Laurie (proud to be kettlecorning - lol....small world as we were at BGSU at the same time...oh she didn't remember me, but did my 6'6" husband when he appeared for class #2 - He played football right? Yep I was a groupy - that's my famous husband....LOL) and Dawn for bringing your boss (hope you still have a job - she walked in with the fear of death on her face and mouthed BE NICE PLEASE......LOL)! Judy called me out on email today claiming I failed to mention her as one of the V02 Max victims a few weeks back - so sorry bout that - yes you too killed it...Tell your husband Tom thanks for the nice review on Dragondoor - much appreciated! The second class rolled in and yet another super turn out....proud of you all.....Chad you make me laugh - a small 2 week sabbatical - sweat angels everywhere - looks of craziness - lots of grunting (between him and Bob - lots of noise).....Both classes were punished each with 20 burpees....class #1 called Mr. Dave out - said he better run after class or they soaping his car - LOL! If you're reading this for tomorrow - get up safety is key.....

Heard over the weekend from a reliable source another local gym (mentioning no names) appears to be saying we (BBOM) have no idea what we're doing - we're hurting people with kettlebells.......apparently they've never taken a class or clearly understand what exactly it takes to be Russian Kettlebell Certified - 23 hours of serious, no joke training.....There are 4 RKC's (practically unheard of in one location) at BBOM - we believe and take our work very seriously......Is Kettlebell hard - you better believe it, but guess what - the REWARD is even greater. Be Careful what you say.......and oh by the way kettlebells don't hurt people - people hurt people.
