More than half of all people will eventually get arthritis some time in their lifetimes.

Arthritis can cause a lot of pain and disability.  This condition mainly affects the joints, causing damage to the cartilage inside. And unfortunately, once the damage to the joints is done, it cannot be reversed.

The good new is that there are certainly things you can do to feel better, dramatically reduce pain and boost function.

And exercising is at the core of treatment for arthritis. However, doing the wrong type of exercise may often exacerbate the pain. 

So which types of exercise are safe and most effective at dealing with the symptoms of arthritis? This topic we discuss in this podcast.

As always the information I present to you is not hear-say but rather backed up by the latest medical research on the subject.

A new piece of research came out earlier this year and pointed a finger at the fact we already knew. That is... The majority of people in a traditional gym environment fail... or stop coming after the first few weeks.
But the rate of failure surprised even myself. What's really interesting is this study also looked at the reasons why people dropped out. They outlined 2 main reasons for failing and abandoning their gym commitment.
I will discuss these reasons and my take on it. We will also discuss how to overcome these risks of failure and how to get to your fitness goals in an effective and reliable way.

In this episode we briefly talk about a new study that looked at exactly how much strength training you need in order for you to get noticeable improvement in muscle strength.
You see, too many people mistakenly think that they need to hit the gym at least 3-4 times a week to see a change in their muscle strength. This new study reveals that it's not true. You can actually achieve significant increase in muscle strength at much lower levels of training.
Listen to the podcast to find out exactly how little training you can get away with to get life-changing results.
