“We Don't Grow When Things Are Easy, We Grow When We Face Challenges.” –Asad Meah

Happy October! We’re finally getting into that fall feeling where the weather gets cool and the pumpkin spice flows. It’s also that time of year when we get a little more busy than usual and can lose focus on our goals. It’s a great opportunity to incorporate fitness challenges into your life to keep your body fit and good habits strong.
