In a hurry, I had a pretty quick pace heading to the glass door fridge across the weightroom floor. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I didn&#8217;t notice anyone in the room until I tripped over some dude stretching near the Lat machine. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I blurted out, half kidding: &#8220;Who lays under machines to stretch when there is a whole room next door for that?!!&#8221; As I recover my stride I hear this calm, soft, but direct voice reply: <\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Well, today it&#8217;s Kobe Bryant stretching under machines but I won&#8217;t be doing this again tomorrow&#8221;. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>All I could think was &#8220;did I just kick the Star of the new Dream Team?&#8221; &#8211; with the answer being yes! <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We had a laugh, he asked why I was in a hurry and I told him I had to get back to the pool before my swimmer finished a repeat so I didn&#8217;t miss his time. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>He said &#8220;swimmers are here? Cool, mind if I stop by?&#8221; <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Well, duh, I said &#8230; &#8220;come on over&#8221;.
