How To Avoid The Workout Mistakes Everyone Makes

Regularly contributing to some of the top fitness magazines that train the biggest stars in baseball and WWE, Jeff is just an incredible guy. His depth of knowledge when it comes to our bodies is immense and he’s all about no BS when it comes to training, fitness, lower back pain, and fixing your posture.

He even talks about exercises you should no longer do like leg extensions and upright rows, as they are not meant for the physical body. I loved sitting down with Jeff, he’s been doing this for 20 years, and he’s got some great stories from when he worked with the New York Mets during their championship seasons.

Make sure you check out his YouTube channel, and I know you’re going to enjoy this incredible conversation about your health and fitness.
