Lawyers have a stressful job and, as host Keith Fuicelli explains, “keeping our bodies in peak optimal performance is critical to success.” That’s why he invites his personal trainer, Courtney Samuel, to the show to encourage lawyers to take up a physical fitness regimen. Courtney lays out why maintaining muscle mass becomes increasingly crucial as we age and offers practical fitness guidance for busy professionals. Tune in for Courtney’s insights about the importance of treating your body as professionally as your legal practice.
