So every week at least once a week I take the monkey for a swim, and from time to time I look around at the people around me to see habits, because I strongly believe our kids learn from what they see, not what they’re taught- seriously 12 years of school didn’t teach me a fraction of what I’ve learnt … Read More

Hey, One thing I see a lot of the time with people who are working towards their health and fitness goals, is how they’ll separate the diet and exercise program from their lifestyle.
