You’ll hear my thoughts on training when tired, whether meal prep is actually essential, and how I approach programming workouts for busy people. I also share a small habit that unexpectedly improved my life, a travel experience that totally caught me off guard, and what three possessions I’d keep if I could only choose a few.
