How many of you have resolved to get more movement in your life, if not for weight loss, but for all the other benefits? Mental health focus, energy, productivity, or just generalized well-being?  As I've often said, I wish exercise and weight loss would just get a divorce because the benefits of moving your body are so much more profound than the numbers on the scale.  But if you've been out of the game for a bit, you may feel intimidated or just don't know where to start.  Well, I'm having a guest today who is going to share not only how to get started, but for those of you who are in it, how to level up your fitness routine.  Meet Dylan Conrad.

"Stop chasing the sexy. It's like your ex-boyfriend or girlfriend that you just kept chasing and chasing and chasing. Nothing good came out of that. It's the same thing with your fitness and your nutrition. There is no new thing. The basic stuff that's been here for ages, it still works and it's going to still work." - Dylan A.
