An interview with Paige Denison, Director of Health, Wellness and Project Enhance at Sound Generations.

Here's the thing about falls that makes me so passionate about it. I mean, they don't have to happen, right? For a lot of things they cause, the human cost, the healthcare cost, the cost to our communities, to families, to caregivers, and preventing them is very, very doable. So I think we need, and we have been working steadily on changing the narrative around falls not being inevitable, because people have felt like they're an inevitable part of aging.

An interview with Dr. Jason Karp, Founder & CEO, Coach, Exercise Scientist and Author.

For many years, I've been hearing people in the fitness industry talk about how your fitness and your physique is 80% nutrition and 20% exercise. And all you have to do is take one exercise science class, and you know that that's incorrect. And how can your nutrition be four times more important than exercise?

An interview with Dr. Kenneth Cooper, Father of Aerobics.

Because my big goal, and the last part of this book, my big goal was to bridge the gap between faddism and scientific legitimacy in exercise and the practice of medicine.  Now the results are too impressive to be ignored.

An interview with Stephanie Geosits, Founder of All About Sports.

And I think that my passion for sport also comes from the fact that it is so universal.  It's global.  I just returned from the U17 Women's World Cup in Morocco, and I saw teams from all over the globe. The final eight teams were from four different continents, and each had its own language, and it was just an amazing confluence of these young women and the power of sport to unite us.

An interview with Dr. Andrew Mock, Medical Director at Hoag Medical Group.  

And I always had this dream of like, what if, rather than people coming to us at the hospital when they're sick, what if we went to them in the places where they were taking care of their health? Why can't the gym be the same place that we are seeing patients? And that's how I started my first year of medical school, is thinking about, what does the gym clinic look like?

It's people around the world, and there's every race and there's every religion, and there's every political preference, and there's, it is fully inclusive, because in movement and in humanity, that's, we see through all of it. There is no, when you're doing Move One Million, there is no race, there is no religion, there's no politics, there's nothing. That's off the table. It's humans moving together to the same music.

An interview with Dr. Renee Rogers and Dr. Michael Hosking.

If you don't know the answer to something, it's okay to say you don't know the answer to something and that you'll look into it. And I think that's a really important space for building trust with your patients.

Dr. Renee Rogers

I would say to the boots on the ground fitness professional, if they could learn to shed their pre-existing biases and their thinking about why people exercise, why someone might be coming to the gym, and especially why a person in a larger body, a person who might be obese might be coming to the gym, if they can learn to understand that fitness is a culture with certain shared beliefs, practices, recognize what those are, and learn to see the patient, the person coming in as as a whole human being…

An interview with Ross Stewart Campbell, Founder and CEO of Beyond Activ.

I think only in the past five years have we really made true strides in becoming a technology-enabled, data-led, outcomes-driven industry, and with that short window of maturity, I don't think we can beat ourselves up too much that we haven't achieved too much in that space of time.

An interview with Dr. Chloë Williamson, Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh.

We're not rational, and the guidelines and the way they're traditionally messaged and have been messaged assumes that humans are rational and that they'll do things that they know is good for them. But in actual fact, your day to day behavior is driven by what you enjoy. And if people can find a physical activity they enjoy and if that's how we can change the way people think about physical activity, to not being a chore, to not being a punishment, not being a way to just burn calories, but a way to have fun and feel good, then I think that's what we need to see.
