FAT LOSS AFTER 40 - BY BRETT KLIKA

Brett is the Director of Athletic Performance at Fitness Quest 10. Brett works with hundreds of athletes per year, from youth to professional, helping improve athletic performance and decrease the likelihood of injury. He has co-produced 2 sports performance DVD’s with Todd Durkin.

It happens to everyone. The birthdays just seem to get away from you. Completely out of your control, you and your body grow one year older every year.
