In this episode I am joined by another training partner of mine and fellow one-stripe white belt, Mr. Luis Cervantes, better known as Slim. Slim and I have been training together for over a year now and I have yet to make him tap, although he has made me tap many times!
Slim has one of the most unique training styles in that although he has a home gym, he makes a habit of exploring gyms not just locally, but all over the world. In fact, when he was in Spain recently to play a concert with his band, he trained at two different gyms!
You can find Slim performing at local, national, and international venues as a guitarist in FIVE different bands. Follow him on Instagram at lou_ferns!
