Have you ever heard of British climber John ‘weighs nearly a tonne’ Dunne? He’s not quite deserving of that nickname any more, but he basically used to be a 250lb (and it wasn’t all muscle) climber who did all kinds of routes, dude’s a legend!

Kettlebells Steve. Do it. And there is a class really close to the office where you can actually learn how to do it with proper form (unlike Crossfit) I'm not even a huge fan of swinging around heavy objects but this makes you feel like a total badass and will work muscles you didn't even know you had.

Hey Suzie, good call. I actually lived with a bunch of Ultimate players in college, and I never once went out to practice. Something about the concept of throwing a frisbee and making in competitive didn't sit right with me. Of course, now that I'm out of college and I have no other competitive outlet, frisbee might be just the thing.

I'm trying to convince my friends (Joe included) to start a full team here in ATL and I'd join them. Won't be until the spring though.

Rock climbing…even the indoor walls…scares the ever loving crap out of me. That's all I have to say about that. I'm a sissy.
