You want to work out, you know you should be working out, but between meetings, deadlines, kids, emails, and whatever else life keeps throwing at you, fitness just… doesn’t happen. And then, when you finally do get a free moment? You’re exhausted. I get it. You’re not lazy. You’re just busy as hell....

Here’s What to Do Now. Alright, bestie, let’s talk. It’s February. That shiny, fresh, New Year, New Me energy? It’s fading. The gym isn’t as crowded as it was in January. The meal prep containers you bought are buried somewhere in your kitchen cabinets. And that resolution you were so sure was going to stick this year? Yeah…...
