Summary
In their Instagram post( @selfmagazine), they shared the following: "Fitness spaces can be a final frontier in a particular strain of body discrimination, where anti-fat bias and weight related stigma are entrenched in our collective understanding of what it means to be fit. It's time to break free from this limited view."
In this episode, Sean and Sax go right at the heart of this irresponsible take on fitness and share a counterpoint that uses health, science and personal accountability as the basis of their insight.
There are forces at play that are attempting to redefine what health and fitness means, and simply put... it is dangerous. It is no longer acceptable to not speak up.
Listen in!

| 0:36.4 | media today. And she decided to have a conversation about some interesting things. Baby, do you |
| 0:42.6 | want to tell everybody what you posted earlier and what I would love to this is very near |
| 0:48.6 | and dear to your heart as someone who's had an eating disorder as, you know, the mother |
| 0:54.0 | of children as a woman who is in ridiculously good shape, who has had two human beings growing |
| 1:01.0 | inside of her body. I'm going to let you take her. Okay, absolutely. I would like to give |
