or at least we used to love.

It was a beautiful morning to stand around in a circle and listen to some music…so that is exactly what we did (minus the standing around and maybe threw in a couple burpees and merkins).

After this morning, I am confident that I may have ruined the nostalgic joy that people feel when they hear these classics.  Sorry men.
