How To Balance Fitness Around A Busy Lifestyle
Fitness for busy individuals is actually a lot simpler than it needs to be. You can get great results with minimal time spent in the gym, so long as you’re following the right routine.

Still, this should not impact your personal decision-making too much - regardless of whether or not someone else is using, this doesn’t impact what you need to do to make progress in your own training.
