Good morning crew. This is Dr. Joe and it's going to One of the lead faculty of the fitness athlete division here at ICE.

That is, while we are on the bar doing things like pull-ups, toast the bar, or possibly on the rings doing more than likely ring muscle-ups of some kind. That is typically what we're going to hear athle
