Episode Description
Starting an exercise program and maintaining it is not easy. If it was two thirds of the United States would not be over weight, obese and out of shape.
To start a new fitness program or make an existing one a long term success it must be approached from three angles: cardiovascular fitness, strength training and proper nutrition. That three pronged attack if executed consistently can net exponential results and is key to getting in the best shape of your life.
During his inaugural Voice America show, The Fitness Triad, Coach Michael Merlino will discuss this basic wellness model that he preaches to help everyday people get extraordinary results.
Join him as he shares the nuts and bolts of a well designed fitness program that you can start right now to help get off the couch or take your fitness to new heights. Michael will also be sharing how he plans on using future show episodes to coach listeners up on how to build and keep that fitness momentum needed for optimal health.
