🎙 Frum Health Club Podcast – Episode 2: Aharon Ross

At 35 years old, Aharon Ross found out he had diabetes — a moment that could have led to decline. Instead, it became the turning point that reshaped his life. In just three months, he dropped 21 pounds, put his diabetes into dormancy for 15 years without medication, and discovered a love for running that has grown into more than two decades of endurance and joy.

In this episode, we cover:
✅ His journey from secular background, becoming frum, and balancing Torah, business, and fitness
✅ How walking turned into running — and why small, consistent steps matter most
✅ Managing diabetes through lifestyle, diet, and discipline
✅ Overcoming serious injury and returning stronger
✅ The mental, spiritual, and emotional benefits of running
✅ Lessons from completing marathons and even an ultra run around Manhattan
✅ Advice for beginners: how to start moving, lose weight, and make it enjoyable

Whether you’re taking your first steps toward fitness or pushing past your limits, Aharon’s story will inspire you to keep going and find joy in the journey.
