Doing Your Body Over With John Shaefer

For women over 40, getting fit and achieving your ideal body can be an overwhelming, intimidating goal. But experience has taught me that it all starts with having the right mindset, as well with as having access to relevant, up-to-date information on fitness and nutrition. However, given the huge volume of information out there, how will you better understand concepts and terminologies and be able to separate the facts from the myths?
