Here at Fitplan, we spend a lot of time listening to podcasts when we’re in motion using our iPhones and Androids. Being able to tap into the knowledge and expertise of all kinds of experts in health, fitness, nutrition, and high performance science while on-the-go has made podcasting absolutely blow up in the last couple years.
