I was recently given the opportunity to try a new health focused personal training app. Since I work full-time in morning radio and then teach group exercise classes part-time in the evenings, I need something to make my own workouts easier to plan out. This way my time is well spent and I only have … Continue reading Stairway to FIT – Training With Ladder
