Minimal Effort, Maximum Gains: Dr Mike Israetel’s Guide to Easy Fitness
Description
“The vegans hate the carnivores. The carnivores hate the keto people. And a lot of these folks are in a battle for a non-existent entity, and that entity is the crowned king of ‘this is the best diet for everyone’.” -Dr Mike Israetel
