In this episode, I sit down with Imagine Strength’s Jeff Turner to talk about your questions, and we cover things like design differences and technical innovations, the benefits your clients can get with IS (that you can’t with other brands), which countries Imagine Strength ships to (and how long shipping takes), and a lot more — so much, in fact, that we had to just plan a part 2!
