You would think Annie Thorisdottir and Katrin Davidsdottir - the DOTTIRS of ICELAND and the Fittest Women in the World would have no problems with their self images, right? But perhaps it is not so surprising that elite athletes themselves grapple with how they look all the time.

This podcast episode discusses their recent episode of their podcast @DOTTIR, titled "What Should The Fittest Women on Earth look like?"

How can we relate to their struggles and learn how to deal with our own self-image challenges?

"She literally has man muscles." So starts the article "CrossFit, "Man Muscles," and the Feminine Ideal" written by @brittney_s Senior Writer at Crossfit.

What is the "Feminine Ideal?" Are CrossFit "Man Muscles" compatible with that ideal? Let's take five minutes to think about this.

How can teaching surgery possibly be related to CrossFit coaching? If you have never been athletic or a coach before, then drawing on your experience teaching surgery can result in some interesting comparisons to the challenges of coaching CrossFit athletes.

Special guest @staceymarino_cf201 Stacey Marino is a rising CrossFit star, but the ascent was not without many challenges. Coming off her best season ever, Stacey finished in her age group 34-39 last year 10th at @wodapalooza, 2nd at @_legendschampionship, and narrowly missed going to the @crossfitgames by four spots. 

With her new coach @mattdlugos of @underdogsathletics, a well known elite athlete in his own right, Stacey has revamped her training and mindset. Fresh from a win at the 1st Phorm Monster Games @themonstergames in Joplin, Missouri, Stacey is looking for even more success this year. 

In addition to talking about her successes, Stacey talks frankly about the challenges, including an eating disorder from childhood and related health issues, as well as dealing with negative body images and self doubt. Stacey has put her best foot (and the rest of her body!) forward recently with @jfzphotography in a series of photos for the Body Positive Project. 

If that was not enough, Stacey owns CrossFit affiliate @crossfit201 in Oakland NJ as well as @201nutrition, a nutrition coaching business. Find out more about how Stacey juggles her many roles and yet is poised for even more success in the sport of CrossFit in the future.

If we constantly see "beautiful" images on social media, does that change what we think is "beauty" in plastic surgery?

We conclude our deep dive into social media and plastic surgery by looking at what is "normal" and "beautiful," and how social media influences what we think and want.

Special guest is @dr.christian.j.vercler Dr. Christian Vercler, MD, MA, HEC-C, Clinical Associate Professor of Pediatric Plastic Surgery at the University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital. He serves as Co-Chief of the Clinical Ethics Service of the Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine at the University of Michigan. Dr. Vercler is a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in craniofacial surgery.

Welcome to another episode of Botox and Burpees. I'm Dr. Sam Rhee, plastic surgeon and CrossFit coach, host of this podcast where we talk about plastic surgery, CrossFit and everything in between. You can find more information at our website, botoxandburpees.com, and make sure to like and subscribe wherever you listen to our podcast.

A growing number of patients are traveling to get their cosmetic plastic surgery procedures done. Whether overseas or more recently to surgery centers in Florida, patients see fantastic pictures on social media, travel for surgery, and then return home - sometimes with problems that their local surgeons are forced to address. Is traveling for surgery safe?

Our latest episode is with special guest @bajajplasticsurgery Dr. Anu Bajaj, MD MBA FACS. She is a board certified plastic surgeon in Oklahoma City. Dr. Bajaj is a past Chair of the Ethics Committee of ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons) who recently wrote an article "The rise of domestic medical tourism - and the ethical questions raised." (link in bio)

We examine the complex problem of domestic medical tourism, the issues about educating patients, and the role social media plays in leading (or sometimes misleading) patients into choices which may result in problems.
