In case anyone else was wondering -“Vic” Tanny (born Victor A. Iannidinardo) was an American bodybuilder, entrepreneur and physical culture advocate. He is considered a pioneer of the modern health club. (Wikipedia)
I had no idea of who Vic Tanny was. He was a professional body builder who organized and opened a lot of gyms. Apparently he originated the idea of an annual membership and the health club.
Vic Tanny also unknowingly invented the January signed up for the full course gym membership craze followed in 2 weeks by the maybe I’ll pick it up again next week move, ending with the heck with it. It isn’t working. I’ve got better things to do with my money conclusion.
Fortunately, there are always lots of folks who are dedicated to their health and thus the health of the gyms, so the better ones seem here to stay.

Such a lie the Pilgrams had to fight dinosaur sized turkey monsters that breathed fire! Dark magicks created them.

Plucking your own feathers didn’t help you any. You just took care of the most tedious part of cleaning a bird.
