How can I talk about fitness after Roe v. Wade being overturned? I can't. Not today. But being that diet culture and what just happened here are two different flavors of the same shit sandwich, I do wanna take the time to talk about some parallels. Before we get into any of this, I need to make one thing perfectly clear. I don't actually know WTF I'm doing here. I'm learning right along with you. I have always used my platform as a way to make sense of things that I’m working through in my own life and it helps to speak in a language I already know--strength training.
Silence does not=neutrality. As fitness professionals, it’s important to consider people’s mental and emotional well-being, as well as safety in the spaces we hold. Silence is not the answer here. When we, as fitness professionals, fail to take action or take a stance at times like this, it says a lot about who we actually care to help. So no, I will NOT stop talking about this anytime soon.
On this episode we talk about:
Google doc for abortion rights activism
