I Bet You’ll Like This Stuff Too

Burlingame Fitness: Movement- and function-based training. Phil & Liz are great folks who know their stuff.

BKXC: My buddy Brian rides the best mountain bike trails in the world on the best bikes. It's effing rad.

Nutrishop CDA: Certified nutritionists slinging good supplements, and better knowledge. I occasionally contribute workout content over here, too.

Reddit/r/homegym: I'm not the all-knowing authority on making a home gym, but I've got an idea of what I'm doing. So do these folks.
