    Consistently terrible F45 results

    @nasa321 This is why I'm against fast paced classes for most people looking to change body composition. I'm not sure what F45 is but if it's circuit training or anything that is fast paced using relatively low weight or entirely body weight it's not uncommon to get pretty poor results in my...
