Re: New Member

Hi Calvin,

I live in Colorado so I can't help you with contact in NYC. I have
done three STRENDS now (I think). It is a rare bird that is both
strong and has endurance. Right now I am focusing on body building.
Body builders could give a rats but about endurance (and generally
the opposite is true of the endurance junkies)
Good luck.
