My Brother, My Trainer
My brother is the kind of trainer who gets after your life for everything. He not only focusses on your body but also eating habits, sleeping habits and even thinking patterns. Since he is also a psychologist, he talks to me about the emotional reasons that made me gain weight in the first place.
