New Week, New You

VERSUS throwdown

Just kidding, you’re more or less the same as you were last week! BUT that doesn’t mean you can’t build better training, nutrition, and recovery habits to truly change for the better. Shout out to those practicing better nutrition habits, to those getting more sleep, and to those who are showing up and training properly.
