Final Words

This has been a busy year at Physical Living! On top of all the publishing here on the blog and on my Youtube channel, I started a new fitness newsletter for older men, took on some online coaching clients, and released a couple of new products, among other things.

Thank you so much for your support this past year! I’m thrilled every time one of you sends me an email or leaves me an encouraging comment telling me to “keep up the good work” or that something I shared was helpful for you. I really appreciate each and every one of you, and I hope I’m able to keep helping you with your health and fitness goals.

Soon, I’ll be off for a much-needed break with my family. And so, I wish you a very merry Christmas, a happy New Year, and a great start to 2017!
