It is good to have mentors and role models to help shape your life, but it is important to remember to always strive to be the best version of yourself.
MOLESKIN:
I had a distance in the parking lot in my head for the Obamas and Quayles to cover, but I had severely underestimated just how bad it would be on our shoulders, on the way out. So the turnaround point had to be adjusted on the fly, during the first round.
I believe we named the Dan Quayles exercise this morning. Could not find anything referencing this workout in the Exicon. The upper body and arms are the more glorified muscles, like the president. But the legs, and the vice presidents, cannot be ignored! Your initial reaction might be that these should have been named Bidens, but he was actually the 47th VP. At the Levee, we get stronger physically and mentally.
