Sarah Hayes FBB Armwrestles Old Man In Video, Wins WIth Both Arms
Frankly, I think the guy in the video was just no match for Sarah Hayes, who has more potential than she realizes. He did get "womanhandled" as she put it. But what's interesting is the guys watching -- what a motley crew of folks! LOL!

Amy Schmid On Getting Older
Amy Schmid is in the sun in this GeneX photo, then talks about getting older in this video. I've got to admit, the video is funny but the questions are a little "light" to be kind.
Tammy Bleile on FTVideo.com
This is simply a beautiful photo taken by GeneX and the decision to use a black and white approach really captures Bielle's muscle development and hour-glass body.
Casey Daugherty on ftvideo.com
Casey Daugherty in GeneX's photo and in James Cook's video talks about her plans for the summer of 2008.

Buffi The Gym Girl - My New Sim Game - BuffiTheGymGirl.com
Regular visitors to our blog are undoubtedly saying "What?!" but I've not forgotten the basics of Sports Business Simulations: our sim games. But I've spent so much time developing the video-blogs, online marketing and online reputation management aspect of the business, that I had to delay the introduction of my third classroom sim: Buffi The Gym Girl.
What's Buffi The Gym Girl?
BUFFI THE GYM GIRL BETA is a simulation of a very real, daily activity: going to the gym and the reasons why we pick a gym or leave one. Since some consider gyms as great places to meet people, and to date, it comes as no suprise that people change gyms based on clientele. Enter Buffi, expertly played by actress Cynthia Lee (with her sister Mary Lee playing "Buffi's Sister".)
Buffi is a beautiful, intelligent girl-next-door, approachable, talkative, and totaly hot and famous star gym rat and personal trainer. She's not shy about her opinions and if she comes to your gym, all kind of good things happen, namely, membership skyrockets.
Your job as gym owner is to make the right decisions to keep Buffi happy and prevent her from leaving and yet make a profit at the same time. You have several decisions you can make, from the monthly fee to use the gym, to the number of sales representatives you need to get new members, the money you spend on marketing and maintenance, the number of employees you have, and if you should expand the gym, provided you can do so.
BUFFI THE GYM GIRL is a system dynamics sim, so there are some business dynamics to be aware of. First, you can have too many members.
If you do, and Buffi's at your gym, she will leave.
You can spend too little money on maintenance, and if you do, Buffi will not come to your gym. You can have too few employees, and risk losing Buffi and everyone else. Or you can have too few amenities, and not get Buffi at all.
The question for you is can you run a successful gym and do without Buffi? That's something you will have to figure out for yourself, either for fun or as part of a business or sport management or fitness management class. If you're interested in using this for your class, call me, Zennie Abraham, its creator, at 510-387-9809 or email: zennie@sportsbusinesssims.com
