I used to a little....

anyhow, can you help me out with this?

Well, it looks like a good challenging schedule.

Are you sure you can handle all this and try to wrestle?

I like a challenge every now and then.

Take this back to the advisor,

and she will register you.

Don't underestimate me.

See you in class.

What?

Trying to kill yourself?

Oh. No, I'm trying to drop weight for wrestling.

You know you can't wrestle under.

Wow, you should try stand-up.

I get a laugh every now and then.

Are you lost?

No, I-I'm taking weightlifting.

Oh are you trying to bulk up?

Training, f-for wrestling.

No shit...

Wrestling?

Have you ever wrestled before?

I used to a little, in third grade.

Have a good workout, Arnold.

What is he, a cripple?

All right, ya'll, gather around.

Hello, I'm Coach Warren.

Come on ya'll, gather around.

Welcome to physical education.

Now, if any of you enrolled this course, because

you thought it would get you out of the first period calculus,

think again.

If any of you took this course thinking ya'll get away

from being scrawny pieces of nothing and out of here like an adonis,

think again.

Lifting weight is a great way

to build a fit body.

But, only if it is done properly.

And if it is done here, it will be done properly,

No exceptions.

Is that understood?

Yes, coach.

Now you all got three minutes
