Perhaps we played a sport, or maybe we didn’t. We begin to see differences in our bodies from our peers as we all enter puberty. It becomes obvious to us that some of us have…
Q: I have really been into HIT lately, but I am losing strength, overall, on it. Is this normal to start HIT training and find that the second workout with the same body part finds you weaker?
