1 00:00:02,140 --> 00:00:04,307 the building is is very , very dated . 2 00:00:04,307 --> 00:00:06,084 This main foundational part was 3 00:00:06,084 --> 00:00:08,251 constructed and built in 1953 . So all 4 00:00:08,251 --> 00:00:10,418 those facilities pretty old . We still 5 00:00:10,418 --> 00:00:12,473 need to make sure that it's safe our 6 00:00:12,473 --> 00:00:14,640 members to keep working out . So every 7 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,696 year CEO , they work with safety and 8 00:00:16,696 --> 00:00:16,540 they come out and do an inspection . As 9 00:00:16,540 --> 00:00:18,762 they dug up some of this floor , all of 10 00:00:18,762 --> 00:00:20,707 these structural members that were 11 00:00:20,707 --> 00:00:22,651 separating us from the base of the 12 00:00:22,651 --> 00:00:24,540 floor , the majority of them were 13 00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,707 cracked and broken . And that leads to 14 00:00:26,707 --> 00:00:28,707 the floor being a little wobbly and 15 00:00:28,707 --> 00:00:30,873 also quite a bit of hazard for us . If 16 00:00:30,873 --> 00:00:32,929 we continue to do what we do here in 17 00:00:32,929 --> 00:00:35,151 the fitness center , they sectioned off 18 00:00:35,151 --> 00:00:34,890 this area . I'm particularly standing 19 00:00:34,890 --> 00:00:37,112 in today , and the other area that's on 20 00:00:37,112 --> 00:00:39,223 the far side of the room on what they 21 00:00:39,223 --> 00:00:41,390 did is R . C E . Folks were ableto rip 22 00:00:41,390 --> 00:00:43,590 up what we have now and replace a lot 23 00:00:43,590 --> 00:00:46,250 of those structural members to make 24 00:00:46,250 --> 00:00:48,250 this a safest possible . I will say 25 00:00:48,250 --> 00:00:50,472 that replacing that is just a temporary 26 00:00:50,472 --> 00:00:52,639 type solution is going to get us , you 27 00:00:52,639 --> 00:00:54,861 know , through to where we need to be . 28 00:00:54,861 --> 00:00:56,861 They did a weight low check on it . 29 00:00:56,861 --> 00:00:59,083 Everything was safe to make sure we can 30 00:00:59,083 --> 00:01:01,306 continue to use this as as a facility . 31 00:01:01,306 --> 00:01:01,230 But I will say from here on out , we 32 00:01:01,230 --> 00:01:03,452 have to be a little cautious about what 33 00:01:03,452 --> 00:01:05,341 we're doing in this facility . It 34 00:01:05,341 --> 00:01:07,508 wasn't designed for the dead lifts and 35 00:01:07,508 --> 00:01:07,230 the things that we're doing the 36 00:01:07,230 --> 00:01:09,230 dropping heavyweights over and over 37 00:01:09,230 --> 00:01:11,563 again . So as we put this back together , 38 00:01:11,563 --> 00:01:13,786 we're asking folks , if you're gonna do 39 00:01:13,786 --> 00:01:15,897 that kind of work out , you take that 40 00:01:15,897 --> 00:01:17,897 to the north side of freedom or the 41 00:01:17,897 --> 00:01:19,952 Iron Hands where the facilities were 42 00:01:19,952 --> 00:01:19,600 actually designed for that kind of 43 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,433 working out . When you look at a 44 00:01:21,433 --> 00:01:23,544 comprehensive airman fitness , one of 45 00:01:23,544 --> 00:01:25,767 the major pillars is physical fitness . 46 00:01:25,767 --> 00:01:27,989 And if I'm not in here every morning at 47 00:01:27,989 --> 00:01:30,100 four o'clock , I feel it . Throughout 48 00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:30,040 the day . I'm a little more tired , and 49 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,151 it's hard for me to get around , so I 50 00:01:32,151 --> 00:01:34,207 know for me it is very important . I 51 00:01:34,207 --> 00:01:33,940 know it's important for a lot of our 52 00:01:33,940 --> 00:01:35,773 folks here at Massawa , so let's 53 00:01:35,773 --> 00:01:37,884 continue to utilize this facility and 54 00:01:37,884 --> 00:01:39,940 other facilities . Let's work on our 55 00:01:39,940 --> 00:01:41,773 fitness . Let's prepare for that 56 00:01:41,773 --> 00:01:43,884 fitness test that's coming eventually 57 00:01:43,884 --> 00:01:43,700 but let's do it safely , especially 58 00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:45,922 here . Potter on . Let's make sure that 59 00:01:45,922 --> 00:01:48,320 we prolong the life of this facility 60 00:01:48,330 --> 00:01:50,386 the best we can until we could get a 61 00:01:50,386 --> 00:01:50,260 new one .
