Coach Wilkins had the class do crunches, with Tam Nguyen and Sheldon together. Later on, he is given a fake note with Mary Cooper’s fake signature, saying Sheldon has testicular hernia and will be getting out of it for 6 to 8 weeks. He is later told of the fake note, and tells George about it. At the same time, he casually mentions he had gotten the same hernia while he was serving in the Army during his time in Georgia. (Spock, Kirk, and Testicular Hernia)
He is also somewhat hypocritical as he tends to give others health advice despite not being in very good shape himself. One example occurs where Sheldon points out how hypocritical is of him to ask his students to run twenty laps when he is not willing to lead by example. He tells Principal Tom Petersen that it was rude. After Sheldon was invited to Wilmot Academy, he and Ms Ingram and Ms McElroy drink alcohol in the faculty lounge at 11 am, but is told by the Principal Petersen that Sheldon has come back.
