Today, I had the honor of training a troop of deployed guard members…

It was a blast. They were all so disciplined and in REALLY good shape and we had a KILLER workout. Music was right. Energy was high. Sweat was pouring.

I started feeling really invincible. They groaned at the proper points…laughed at my comments…clapped when I told them too! It was great!!

And then I did it…I showed my age and naivete…

After, cooling them down and stretching, I added a little finishing touch by giving them a lecture on the proper way to hold posture. I had them all standing tall. Backs straight, bottoms tucked, shoulder blades pulled together and flat…and then I opened my mouth…

"Have a good week…and no humping!"

The class erupted in laughter when the smartbum in the back quipped "Exactly what my wife said when I left for this deployment!"

NOTE TO SELF…the proper term for slouching is SLUMPING!!
