Send us a textCori Lefkowith is the owner of Redefining Strength, a wildly popular online fitness company and functional fitness small group training studio in Costa Mesa California.  Through her personal experiences and working hands on with clients at her gym, Cori has developed training methods that have been featured in Women’s Health, SELF magazine, Shape, the OC Register, and MindBodyGreen. Cori always jokes that she’s made all of the mistakes - pushing through injury only to end up worse off, trying fad diets to only fall victim to the yo-yo dieting cycle - so that she can help her clients avoid the same pitfalls. On today's very special episode, host Brian Klepacki sat down with Cori out West in beautiful San Diego and they talked about everything from exercise to family to business. Cori finds joy when she's empowering others to get the health and fitness results they’ve always dreamed of through coaching. Listen in to this educational and inspiring conversation and start learning on how you can redefine YOUR strength today.   "Strength doesn't have to mean one thing, it doesn't have to mean lifting a one rep max..it could mean running after your grandkids, it could mean being able to run again after a serious hip injury or car accident.." -Cori Lefkowith   Time Stamps 1:27 Who is Cori Lefkowith?
