WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: Quarantine Quickie
Fitness
Moving your body well goes a long way in improving the way you feel. We know that a consistent exercise routine not only helps with overall health and longevity, but also improves mood, boosts energy, promotes better sleep, and helps combat disease so you can live your best life.

I often walk into the gym to get the rowers set up for my class, only to find that many of the dampers are set all the way up to 10.
WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: 4-19-19 METABOLIC MAGIC
