Fellow Fit for Service brother Ian Creighton joins Lance today to share his story & experience with adversity! Ian is a former Wall Street Investment Banker & Trader. While working on Wall Street, Ian found his love for health & fitness. He is now the General Manager, coach, & trainer at BRICK New York. Ian is also a freelance writer for Men’s Health & other media outlets. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, BRICK was shut down, but this didn’t stop Ian & his team. The team has since migrated into online classes so that they can provide their clients with the much-needed outlet of physical exercise. Tune in today to listen to Ian & Lance discuss the importance of travel, experiencing other cultures & of course, proper nutrition.
