• Improve Your Strength Span with Health & Performance Expert Mark Kovacs, PhD

  "There's a term that we use quite a bit called Strength Span. Everyone's using the term health span, but there's this concept of strength span, which is, how long can you maintain your strength into your later life? Which will help with a lot of this as well. That was one area. That person lost over 30 pounds in about six months by implementing these minor adjustments in nutrition, minor adjustments in sleep, minor adjustments in exercise. But when you stack them together, it only didn't just affect the physical, but it also affects the emotional and the mental." -Dr. Mark Kovacs If you like our podcast, please share it, subscribe, and leave us a 5-star review.

  "Now that I think about it, I was actually slowly getting really burnt out because I had no life. I didn't really get to spend time with my family.
