Which is why as […]

ABOUT THE WORLD’S FITTEST BOOK This is taken from The World’s Fittest Book which is (unapologetically) different to most. Void of quick fixes, empty promises and magic pills. You won’t be given a training plan or diet guide to blindly follow. Instead the goal is to equip you with the principles of losing fat, building […]
