Gym Tune of the Week: Orbit Culture - "From The Inside”

Rock on,
Dr Mike

A while back, I asked you a simple question: What's your number one obstacle? The answers came flooding in, and one theme stood out like a powerlifter at a marathon starting line. Time. Not enough freaking time. One person even asked if I could extend it. Another felt their short workouts were selling...

Greetings from ye olde MSP airport, where your favorite nerd is currently mainlining coffee and preparing to board the flying germ tube for a quick hop to Chicago. Why Chicago?
