Achieving 7-8 hours of quality sleep reduces stress and cortisol levels, enhancing testosterone production for better hormonal balance.

REM and deep sleep cycles are super important to HGH levels. Remember the fit tip I shared in studio on this habit and WHEN you get this very valuable boost to your hormone levels 😴

Everyone talks about retirement savings. But no one talks about the muscle you’ll need to use those years.

Muscle keeps you moving.
Muscle keeps you thinking.
Muscle keeps you living life on your own terms.

Invest in it.
