Rest, Reset and Recovery with Elle Linton

In this episode of Health Unwrapped we have a good old chin wag with Fitness Pro Elle Linton. Elle has been championing exercising from home during the pandemic and coming up with innovative ways to keep her audience entertained including her popular 'Rolling with my Foamies' session. We talk about the importance of recovery as Elle explains how she looks after herself, gives great tips for staying motivated during the winter months, highlights the importance of sleep and she and talks us through the supplements she uses.
