If you have concerns about exercising in these conditions, please consult your physician and/or use your best judgment. We will remain open and suggest that you take whatever precautions you see fit, including not exercising if that’s what you feel is best for you.

There have been lots of questions about the Make-It-Happen program I'm asking you to join, so here's an idea of what I'm trying to accomplish with this one. We ask you to do hard stuff in here. We want you doing complicated core-to-extremity movements performed at uncomfortable intensities. We want you committing to a lifestyle that will spark your hormonal systems to create long-lasting changes in body fat, bone density, and lean body mass. These changes will give you a massive advantage in the fight against aging and chronic disease.
