Happy Halloween! Try not to go crazy on that candy and don’t be a ghost at the gym this week. (see what I did there?)

When people come to me asking about what they can be doing outside the gym to improve their workouts or just get the most out of our programming, the first thing I usually ask them is how much sleep they typically get. Are you getting enough sleep? If not check out these 9 tips on how to get more rest!
