This week on the Exercise Is Health podcast, Julie and Charlie discuss a common term in the exercise industry - modifications - and why the negative stigma that is typically associated with it is not justified.

However, being able to strategically modify your exercises will not only help you feel better, it will help you get better results from your workouts, too!
