Ep 89: Fitness: Friend or Foe in your Relationship?

As we start the new year, fitness, and “New year, New me” is a focus for many. We all know how important being physically fit is for officer safety, but how does exercising and meal prep fit into their limited off time?  Does this impact their relationship with family? I’ve heard complaints from spouses about hyperfocus, how working out feels more important than family and takes time away, separate meal planning which contributes to the feeling of separation again, supplements, and tailoring of uniform shirts.    I also know it is important for the physical and mental health of officers.    Is Fitness a friend or foe?   To answer that question, I brought Adam Haidary on the podcast.  Adam is a former law enforcement officer and owner of Effective Fitness Training explains how fitness can strengthen your relationship while also improving your physical and mental health.
