Great interview! As a collegiate athlete, it has taken me a long time to enjoy an “easy” workout. I would feel like if it wasn’t an hour and a half of sweat and heavy breathing, it didn’t count. I injured myself a lot that way. Now I can find peace in short exercises throughout the day and walking. Not to mention with 3 kids I don’t have time for “workouts” anymore. Some push-ups here, some pull-ups there, some squats over there, some chasing kids around in circles and I’m good!
Right on, Meesha. Keep it up!
You teased us Abel! How could a gentleman like Chris get slapped TWICE in one evening? :p
