Alright everyone! Welcome back from a week long hiatus. Nothing fires up the internal juices more than a nice little break. In honor of upcoming Winter season we are going to focus today on the legs. Arguably the most important muscle for a variety of reasons. Today we are focusing on Balance, Posture and Stability. I do not want anyone slipping on ice if it can be avoided!
