TRAINING
Workouts on Pinterest, some are good, some are a waste of time. Unfortunately, there is so bogus advice on toning, fat loss and expectations of results! Sorry, but fire hydrants don’t do squat! [Pun intended] You won’t see lean legs in 5 days and you won’t lose 10 pounds in 10 days with most of these programs.

Below are links to the ones I spoke about in this podcast episode:
