Are You "Getting Old"? Or Is Diet Culture To Blame? A Candid Convo with My Client Jess


Listen Later

I have this half baked theory that training from a diet culture mindset is making us feel "old". In so many ways. But mostly the idea that of COURSE you're gonna feel like you're "too old" to do certain things if you've been beating yourself into the ground for years. I have to imagine that years of over-training and not eating to support that can wreck your body in a worse way than age can. And when I got to chatting with my client Jess about it, I realized that she had so much value to add, so I brought her on the show! 

On this episode we talk about: 

  • The age old saying "I can't do xyz because I'm this age now" and why that doesn't have to be the case.
  • Jess's experience training at different ages and what has changed about her approach to her workouts over time (and since working with me!)
  • What we wish more personal trainers and strength coaches knew about helping more people make training sustainable over the years.
  • What we wish adults did differently when we were growing up and what we hope is different for future generations.
  • What we hope movement and strength will look like for us when we're in our 80's.
  • So much other good stuff!
  • Tough Love Strength Club: get on the waitlist!
