Welcome to Fit Body Happy Joints. My name is Shannon. Today I'm

excited to welcome our guest Dr. Stacy Sims on the podcast today. We talk about mistakes that women make when

And if you need some help, Payton and I did a podcast last week,

and at the end we kind of talked about how you can use the scientific method on
