-what she means by “heavy lifting”;
-how to get started lifting heavy + how to progress;
-how your brain + nervous system benefits from resistance training;
-how to use your cell phone to help you train at home; and,
-ways to incorporate a treadmill into your resistance routine.
Before Stacy joins around 10:39, Britany and Sarah share laughs about found change.
