My muscles burned, screaming at me to stop. “I know this is hard,” the trainer on the TV screen told me through her game face. “It’s not easy. But if you want results, you have to work for it.” ‘Tis the season for New Year resolutions, and among the most popular is the resolution to lose weight or get physically …
