“I am a music lover...I was a fitness instructor, but also a part-time DJ.” “...Streaming is here to stay….at least for a while.” - Denise Imbesi

In Episode 169 of The Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, the Two Fit Crazies have an awesome conversation with the founder of Muscle Mixes Music, Denise Imbesi. Denise shares what it was like growing up in Brooklyn working as both a fitness instructor and a part-time DJ in the 1980’s. Her love for music and fitness soon inspired her to create her own music mixing company, Muscle Mixes Music. Three decades later, Denise is an established “heavy hitter” in the fitness music industry. From tapes, to CD’s, to digital downloads, to the launch of an APP, Denise talks about the importance of evolving with the times and the importance of using music as motivation. She also reveals particularly important information regarding licensing rights and policies when playing music on social media platforms and beyond. Listen carefully as Denise discusses the do’s and don'ts of music licensing as well as how to create and buy your own music to build your classes or to sell and make a profit. Music is a driving force for fit pros, athletes, gym goers and more, so it is crucial to educate yourself about the rights to use non-licensed and licensed music as a part of your fitness business. Muscle Mixes Music is an awesome resource for its extensive libraries of music and Denise is ready to help you get started today! Check it out!

Episode 143 - Medical Fitness Tour 2020 Recap - Christine & Brian Rally for Doctors to Prescribe Fitness & Nutrition 

“We all share the same mission; we want to improve the quality of peoples’ lives through movement and nutrition. Let’s shift the paradigm!” -Christine

In Episode 143, Brian and Christine reunite for a powerful conversation about shifting the paradigm that exists between the current state of medical professionals and fitness professionals around the world.  Christine talks about her recent trip to lecture at the Medical Fitness National Conference at the University of Irvine and discusses her trademarked facial fitness and rehabilitation program, Let’s FACE It Together™.  Both Brian and Christine elaborate on some of the latest research and studies to support the collaboration of both professions. While the traditional doctor “treats problems,” the fitness professional is interested in preventing problems and reducing the onset of diseases.  Let’s geek out on the research and studies that prove a healthy diet that includes movement will naturally lead you to live a more quality life! If you have yet to hear about the MedFit Network and Education Foundation, a non-profit organization spearheaded by Lisa Dougherty, it’s time to check it out and join the movement.
