I am the radio show host on KXCR 90.7 FM radio on the Oregon Coast for the show "The Health and Fitness Show with Tracy" If you can't hear the show on Mondays live, they can be heard on her podcast channel on Castbox.fm. I believe health and fitness training is about developing an individual's own unique strengths. I also believe we need to be very knowledgeable as fitness professionals in muscles and movement and the biomechanics of the human body in order to bring the best we can to our clients. I feel knowledge is power.
