A Look Back on 100 Episodes-Ep. 100
This week’s Open Sky Fitness Podcast was extra special as Alek Lev and Jeff Meacham joined Rob for our 100th episode!! Alek and Jeff were there with Rob from the very beginning and they’ve taken the 100th podcast as a great opportunity to look at their own health and fitness progress over the last three years up to now.
Thank you all for listening to our episodes and especially those of you who have been with us since the very beginning back in the Fall of 2013! We’re very proud of our milestone and for being able to help you become a healthier you. By interviewing excellent guests on the show and by providing you with the best information about fitness and nutrition, we’ve all learned a lot over the years about good health.
