Sometimes things get a little creative and fancy at Ball Bearings and other F3 Raleigh locations.  Creative and fancy workouts are great and keep us coming back for more, as we all know variety is the spice of life.  But every once in a while, its necessary to get back to basics, back to our roots in the hot muggy sauna of Fletcher Park, and go Old School.  Don’t forget where you came from Ball Bearings.
