"Move or die is the language of our Maker on the constitution of our bodies."
John Adams, 2nd President of the United States (died age 90).
Quotation is published in John Adams by David McCullough.


John instructs Lonnie Moore in posterior reaches, which help him increase his core strength and shoulder flexibility.


Lonnie performs one-arm dumbbell rows or “lawnmowers”
(aka “Lonnie Moores”).


“See – pumping iron can be fun,” John tells Bernadette
Nason, his most challenging client (his wife).

stability, and balance in the T-stabilize move
