"FIT FEATURE:  ALLYSON FRANCO"  #WEARORANGE -BY MIKECON PHOTOGRAPHY

Do you remember your first training session? How different is your training today?
I remember when I first joined a gym after having my son. That was more significant to me than my first time ever training in a gym was.

"FIT FEATURE: ANGIE SHOUP" - By European/German Fitness Photographer MikeCon Photography

Angie lives in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and drove over 10 hours to come and work with me. She was a referral from my client Leslie.
