THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BELIEVE Around year ago, a young lady walked into The Forge. Or perhaps I should say crept into The Forge. She was so shaken by what she thought she was going to experience, she couldn’t even talk without her voice trembling. And she just barely made it through her first workout.

The truth is... ...it was GREAT having you here, Stefano my man! … [Read more...] about THE POCKET POWERHOUSE FROM POTENZA
