How's it going?

Thanks for having me.

Carl is the owner of CrossFit South Bend and has been a loyal power athlete follower for over a decade.

And I believe was actually at the second CrossFit football seminar.

If I do.

And so I've been told.

And good old CrossFit Indie Blast.

I think that was the very first public one. So we obviously did the very first kind of dry rub. Dry rub? Yeah. You're thinking about barbecue? Yeah, that's actually what I usually call it, the dry rub. They called it a dry run, and I always thought it was a dry rub. So we did the first one at Balboa and then the first one that we booked was it blast gym in somewhere in Indiana.

And yeah, that was the very first one we did.

So that's where I met Carl, who was dramatically skinnier at the time.

So much so I didn't recognize them for like three years.

And yeah, but but no I mean

helped on the cross-a-football seminar for a number of years gym owner I mean how many years have

you been a gym owner I mean it's got to be 12 13 years now hasn't it yeah so I've been at cross

south in a decade and I've been cross the coach since 2008 so, a little over a decade of an owner running this show.

And he also broke the number one rule of owning a crossfit gym.
