HIITCAST

In this episode, I speak with health professional and NPC figure competitor, Christina Tamerlano about her insights and personal journey of going from 192 lbs to being stage ready for figure competitions. We talk about the commitment it takes to prepare for stage readiness, the difference between weight loss and fat loss and where a lot of people get frustrated when the scale doesn't budge, and some fun stories we've encountered in the gym with trainers.
