Sal Di Stefano On Why Resistance Training is Necessary & How to Successfully Stick to Your Workout Plan

Today, we welcome Sal Di Stefano. You may know Sal as one of the hosts of the Mind Pump Podcast, a show that exposes the RAW TRUTH about health, fitness, nutrition and more. Sal picked up his first weight at the age of 14. Fitness was a way for him to apply hard work and effort towards changing and re-inventing himself. He wanted to shift the direction of the fitness industry from an aesthetic insecurity based industry to a self love and self care health industry. We talk about formulating an effective fat loss strategy, the difference between a group class training and individualized training, how people managed to stick to working out and get to enjoy it, and eating the right food for best results. We also talk about using exercise as a tool to achieve a quality life.
