    Zach,

    Great podcast – I really enjoyed listening to the conversation. I have read Andy’s books and never really knew that he owned a gym business and is a fellow brother Marine. Very cool guy.

    I totally agree with the changes that have taken place over the past 10-15 years when it comes to the physical culture in this country. I was laughing about Crossfit and the early days. It’s crazy that parents still ask for “speed and agility” training for their weak middle school/high school kid when they can’t do a proper push up or do a correct body weight squat.

    I still have fond memories of attending the Underground Strength Coach Certification in your Edison garage gym back in October of 2011. I’m still at it and training hard, glad everything is going well for you and your family. If you every want to talk training the older folks 60+, contact me.

    All the best,

    Al Rymniak
