Back Pain. It is something we have all experienced, and it can really put a damper on your life. But how often do we just chaulk it up to being, “back pain,” and don’t give it much more thought? As a fitness instructor, I see a lot of people in the run of a week […]

One huge misconception about being a fitness instructor for a living, is that I get to be paid for doing my own workouts.
