Top 5 Benefits Of Minimalist Style Workouts

Austin Powers
I arrived in Austin last Friday after an early 6 am flight (which means I was up at 3 AM & on the road for 3:30 AM).

I'm not telling you to agree / disagree with this video. I am asking you a question that was asked to me some years ago..... hopefully forcing you to think a little deeper than your ordinary day.

Herschel Walker, My Truth & EVERYONE’S Truth
