What can ancient Greek wrestling teach us about modern strength training?

Join Professor Chris & Travis as he intertwines history with practical programming advice, emphasizing how Milo's training methods provide valuable insights into strength development today. We also highlight the transformative power of our Qualified Personal Trainers Community on Facebook, where ongoing support and enriching discussions await.

In the second part of our episode, we tackle the nitty-gritty of fitness training adaptations for various environments, from home gyms to commercial setups.
