I just got back from the Advocare ADVONATION Conference in Atlanta.  My mind is still spinning!!!  The entire day was just awesome: we had world-class training that I can apply to all areas of my life, we heard from people who have taken claim of their life when they felt hopeless and now are living extraordinary lives with new found freedom.  In addition we got to hear a little “behind the scenes” from the Fittest Man on Earth – 4x CrossFit Champ and non-paid Advocare Endorser RICH FRONING!!!  He could endorse any supplement company but he chooses Advocare.  When asked why he uses it, he simply said, “It Works!”
