The Frum Health Club Podcast
We started The Frum Health Club with a clear mission: to spark real change in our community’s health and well-being. Too many in the Frum world lack the knowledge and guidance needed for proper nutrition and fitness, leading to preventable illness and, tragically, lives cut short.
This podcast and group is here to change that.
Each episode brings you practical health tips, simple meal ideas, fitness guidance, and inspiring stories, all designed to help you live longer, feel stronger, and have more energy for your family and your avodas Hashem.
Your health matters. Your family matters. Together, we can build a healthier, stronger future for Klal Yisrael.
