Description

In this listener Q&A episode, Kevin tackles your questions on a range of topics: his take on the Jefit workout app, whether there’s ever a right time to slow down your training, and how to adapt your workouts as you age. He breaks down what “functional training” really means and explains why strength may matter more than cardio as you get older. 

Get-Fit Guy is hosted by Kevin Don. A transcript is available at Simplecast.
