The Fence
Mitch B. & Gar M.
We inspire and inform first time exercisers who may be "on the fence" to beginning a healthier lifestyle. Our goal is to educate our listeners so that they have the "how" to their "why". The topics we cover could help you improve your physique, bolster your current routine or just help you get strong AF! In a world full of influencers spreading misinformation, we are here to provide the truth.
