59. Why You Should Train Hard and Be Stubborn About Your Goals: Interview with Dana Linn Bailey
In this episode of Knowledge and Mileage, Kris talks to first IFBB physique pro in history, Dana Linn Bailey.

Tune in to hear Dana's story and why she thinks no matter your gender or size you should train your face off.
