March Radio Madness and the Perfect Pushup

TGIF Teammates! For your Friday afternoon listening pleasure, check out a podcast from a popular Bay area morning radio show, The Woody Show on Live 105.3 FM.

http://www.live105.com/pages/3716002.php -- click on the podast called Infomercial Madness.

They have been doing a segment this past week called “Infomercial March Madness” to find the all-time greatest infomercial product. Perfect Pushup made it to their Sweet Sixteen so one of our Perfect Marketing Team decided to take the radio station by storm.

I'll let her tell the story -- Julie, take it away! "So, this morning at a blurry-eyed 6 a.m., I headed down to the radio station armed with a case of Perfect Pushups and a “cover letter” introducing us as a local company with a killer product! I was able to bypass their tight security and made friends with their call screener, Katie. She brought me up to studio where I hung out for a while, watched them do the show, met one of the DJs (Greg), and unleashed the power of the Perfect Pushup! They were all VERY excited about the pushups."

HOOYAH for taking a beachhead Julie! Next year we're going to the Championships!! Teammates, push out some Perfect Pushups while you're following your teams this weekend.

March Madness Monster Mash

March Madness Monster Mash – M4 - (SEAL speak for so hard BUT fun workouts) – the economy is in the tank, the weather is at extremes (for some that’s good – think snow! for others, that sucks) and March Madness is about to tip off – sounds like a great time for a new workout routine.

Here’s the deal, get your Perfect Pushups, kneepad or towel, and water positioned in front of your TV – clear a path to your Perfect Pullup - bring over only your truest friends – have them sign a release from liability form so they can't sue you after they realize they can’t move the next day! Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating a little here, but having a little peer pressure always makes a Monster Mash workout more fun (and yes, makes you more sore!)…here’s how the M4 workout goes: dial in your favorite b-ball game and pick a team – each time they score a basket you do same number of pushups per points – every free throw is a pullup. Simple right?

Now – how many games can you play – that’s the question?! Here’s an example – Duke vs. UNC – you’ve got a total of 4 guys in the room – 2 match Duke – 2 match UNC – the real game is not who beats who on the court, it’s who completed the most pushup and pullups – now start to fillout brackets for each game, using the same teams, then tally up the total number of pushups and pullups performed - bet what you want – beer – dollars – apples – don’t care what it is, but make it meaningful enough to want to earn the bragging rights of winning your first annual MARCH MADNESS MONSTER MASH!

BTW – you don’t have to stick with one pushup or pullup per point – strong teams can collect more points doing more pushups and pullups just don’t burn yourself out, you never know how well your teams just might score!

HOOYAH AND CHARLIE MIKE - ALDEN
