From that perspective exercise is an integral component to your ability to fight and defend yourself. This, of course, is just one of the many life benefits to exercise, but... Continue Reading →

The host is Mike Seeklander, probably known to many of you as a co-host on the Outdoor Channel’s show The Best Defense. Mike is a great host and always covers great topics. I listen to all of the episodes... Continue Reading →
