Feel Good Inc.

In preparation for our upcoming trip to Edmonton for the National Club Championships we, as a team, have been going to Pilates once a week. Pilates by Garda is a brand new studio and in an effort to widen their clientele they invited us to come in for free for a few weeks to see the benifits for ourselves. It's win-win as we are getting what has proven to be a really great workout, and they get the word of mouth publicity of having a bunch of big tough rugby players shaking and squirming in agony at finding muscles we didn't know existed. Then to top it off the newspaper caught wind of our trip and decided to do a story on the training we have been doing in preparation. This is the picture that appeared in the Gleaner today:
(THE DAILY GLEANER/STEPHEN MACGILLIVRAY PHOTO)Members of the Fredericton Loyalists men's rugby team are using Pilates to get ready for the season, which includes attending the inaugural 16-team national club championships May 17-22 in Edmonton. Here players listen to Pilates by Garda on Queen Street instructor Susie Grant. They are, from left, Ryan Jackman, Simon Pacey, Malcolm Reeves and Wade Yeo.

You could really put just about any caption on this photo that you want but it's never going to be funnier than the look on the instructor's face when Izzy farted trying to touch his toes. Gold, pure gold!
