About this site

StronglinksFitness is a work in progress.

StrongLinksFitness is about leading an informed fitness lifestyle. Science is about remaining objective. We can’t be right 100% of the time and all we can do is reshape our opinions as new information is available. I do my best to stay on top of current information so I can help people become the best athletes they can. I am an amateur natural bodybuilder, a rock climber, and a mountain biker. I want everyone to reach their full potential safely, and pain free. My website is about sharing information to help people maximize their training and avoid muscle imbalances no matter what their activity is, for all levels of performance! I care and thats why all the information I share is free.
