The Fitness Industry Has A Problem

About this episode

The episode critiques the current state of the fitness industry and discusses the importance of healthy habits amidst conflicting messages.

The fitness industry has completely lost the plot. One creator says, “It’s okay to be big.” Another says, “I need a man with a belly.” Meanwhile, some of the same people promoting body positivity are ignoring the habits that actually improve health, confidence, performance, and longevity. In this livestream, I react to viral fitness takes, break down where the messaging goes wrong, and explain why lifting weights, building muscle, and taking ownership of your health still matter. If you're tired of fitness influencers moving the goalposts, this conversation is for you. 👇 Let me know in the comments: Are people helping others... or just validating bad habits? 📚 Fitness 101 Foundations: https://cmartyfit.stan.store 🥗 Nutré Meals (Code: CMARTYFIT50): https://gonutre.com 👕 Less Brunches More Crunches: https://lessbrunchesmorecrunches.com
