You know you (probably) hate them. We all hate them to some degree. But what if you could harness burpees to actually improve your relationship, and your life?
In this episode we’re chatting about the benefits of exercise above and beyond the physical aspects - we’re talking about how making a commitment and following through can have massive ripple effects on your relationships and even on your kids.
And if you want to get in on the action and leverage the physical and emotional benefits of exercise, join Mike’s Dads Doing Burpees 10-Day Challenge and start changing your body, your life, AND your relationships. We promise that you don’t have to love burpees, but you do have to be open to loving fun, accountability, and a community of support.
