The Top Article of the Week
Since you’re reading this list — whether you’re new here or you’ve been following us since back when Ronda Rousey was undefeated — you probably take your fitness career pretty seriously. You study, you improve, and you put as much thought and effort into your clients’ programs as possible. And that’s great.
