Finding Your Sweet Spot Heffner Wellness

"Even if it's just 20 minutes a day, I feel better 20 minutes later."

Bob Page had never lifted weights until he was in his 60's.

Once he started he didn't look back...and is stronger, more flexible, has more energy, and just overall feels healthier these days.

Which is a good thing, because he needs them all to help run the University of Kansas Health System.

Listen to how this husband, father, grandfather, daily exerciser and CEO (of one of the largest employers in Kansas City) utilizes just 20-30 minutes of exercise a day to manage stress, improve his golf game, and try to be the best version of himself through his exercise consistency and constant pursuit of progress.
