#196: It's Time To Let It Go

Arnold's Pump Club
About this episode

You're taught not to suppress negative thoughts and experiences? But what if letting go is the key to more happiness?

In this episode, Arnold examines a study that might make you rethink how you handle hard times.

You'll also learn about the important behavior that only 5 percent of people follow, and why people avoid creatine for the wrong reasons.
