This Week Rob dedicates the beginning of the podcast to answering the question, “Is Juicing Healthy?” An Open Sky Fitness fan asks whether she should replace her morning coffee for a morning Jamba Juice.

Is Juicing Healthy Compared to Candy?

Rob goes into why some fruit juices are as bad for you as a Snickers bar as well as what kinds of juices are good for you. Then, guest Garry Matthews, head trainer of G-Train Fitness, joins Rob inspiring you with tips towards achieving your fitness goals. He even gives you a full body workout that will take you under an hour to complete.
