Ok, we all want to be healthy and commit to our fitness goals. Simple right? Well…the reality is sometimes we get caught up in our daily lives and often put fitness on our back burners. We don’t always add a workout, walk, biking, or any other exercises onto our daily calendars.  That’s where fitness and…

So, what’s keeping you at home and away from the gymnasium? Crazy fees? Large crowds? Feeling self-conscience? Unfamiliar equipment? Pandemic fears?

Your YouTube “experts” or local gym unwarranted advice-giver guy (every gym has one, I swear) might tell you, “just go as heavy as possible for as many reps as possible!”. Lifting until failure (inability to do another rep)…

Delta Variants and Doubling Down Way back in the beginning of 2021 (which feels like it was a decade ago), everyone was optimistic. Vaccines were rolling out, things were opening back up – we were ready to return to our lives. Anddddd then there was the delta variant. For many, it was in simplest terms,…
