Hi Steve, thanks for the invite! I have to join in on everyone's appreciation for your work. Your writing has truly changed my outlook on fitness & health by 180 degrees. When I read your posts, articles, etc., just a huge DUH flashes across my mind! It all makes sense to me. So for that I thank you, and for simply being…
