Just want to welcome a few stud/ettes to the fold.... Jim and Susan, Matt, Michael, John and Andrea, Ryan and Bill....think I got everyone. Real quick rundown. This is the WOW, or workout of the week. I send them out once a week or sometimes in two week increments. The email is more or less a who, what when and where for group training. All ability levels are welcome, and they are always FREE! In the event of a change or cancellation I do my best to send an email and or post it to Facebook. So if you're on FB and haven't joined the Misfits group, look it up and request to join. A lot of communication goes on there!
