In this episode of the "Trainer Talk" Series, our panel of fit pros dive into the controversial world of fitness professional continuing education. While staying educated and recertified is critical in our industry, the real question is: Are fit pros truly getting value from these educational opportunities...or are they just paying into a money grab? We break down the good, the bad, and the downright questionable side of continuing education, and what it really means for fit pros trying to grow their careers.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
