"I’ve been an active person my whole life but always struggled sustaining my results. This is what I believe makes TRUE STRENGTH stand out. It focuses on the BASICS, has me done in an hour, and there's no BS. The only thing I regret is not finding out about this sooner. LOVE The Repetition Method!!"
