Frances Manias: “You can’t stop the evolution of training” – Episode 63

“We all have the strength to go at it alone, but we choose to go at it together.”

Our guest today is all about community. From elite basketball to bodybuilding to powerlifting, Frances Manias has dominated just about everything, and in the past year, has built one of the best powerlifting training camps to date…Iron Sisters. She is extremely humble in all her accomplishments, and chooses to shine the light on others. We are very excited to have Frances on the podcast for Part I of our interview with her. This episode is so inspirational, you don’t want to miss it!!
