“You know, we’ve been doing a lot of talking. Why don’t we get a bit of physical exercise.

I’d like you to link up with the person sitting next to you in an arm wrestling position.

Your task, in thirty seconds, is to get the back of the hand of the other person down as many times as possible.

Count how many times you get it down. Wait until I say go.”

how long you stay there AND what you do while there.
