Six years ago I was diagnosed with stage II melanoma on my back. After the doctor removed what he thought was there, it returned two years later and had metastasized to my brain, lung, and liver. I had four brain surgeries and two intestinal surgeries on my colon.

One has to be extremely disciplined and have a positive attitude to beat cancer.

Now, I’m cancer free to this day—confirmed by three PET scans, three MRI’s, and three CT scans. I truly believe that this is because of the special muscle program GhFITLAB offers for people like me, their nutritional advice, along with my thee-week infusions of an immune boosting drug. I’m still here, happy, healthy, and living life as we’re supposed to be.

Thank you, Greg, Marcin and GhFITLAB for all your help, which keeps me in my current state of good health!

According to studies, we do a much better job getting in aerobic activity, but we skip what's more important -- strength training. And the discrepancy is worse among women, who can experience the most benefits! Let’s change that.

The government recommends that adults engage in two sessions a week of resistance training to maintain muscle and prevent injury. Most of us aren't getting close to that, but it's easy to catch up.

Kathy Smith a few decades ago was known for her fitness classes, despite not having a lot of opportunities to excel in athletics when she was younger. Now she’s cheering on her daughter in track. The New York Times has this inspiring story of a mother-daughter duo:

Kathy Smith, who transformed herself into a successful aerobics entrepreneur, instilled the value of competition in Kate Grace, the top U.S. entrant in the 800.

We are proud to be part of a feature article in Crain's this week talking about the outcomes that we get for our clients with careful measurement of exercise intensity to maximize efficiency and results. Less is more effective - don't you think?

Some trainers are saying no to clients who want to do high-intensity workouts more than a few times a week. Overtraining is a real, if not well-understood, syndrome.
