“ Before starting this program I suffered with lots of lower back pain, limited mobility in my hips, pain in my shoulder, and pain in my wrist from a fall. I have gained strength in my entire body, my hips are more mobile, and I have zero pain in my shoulder, and my wrist. I’m even able to do planks and push-ups again and I am sleeping much better. I didn’t even realize my sleep had been affected.”
