Mark Breedon is an online strength coach for women who joins us to talk about weight-neutral strength training, and how we can approach exercise, and specifically strength training, in a non-aesthetic-focused way. In this episode we’re talking about how feeling strong is for everyone. It’s not about what you look like or your weight on the scale. Mark shares how your body and your weight do not measure your worth, and they should not be prohibitive to anyone who wants to work on building strength and health through weight training.
We’re also diving into the biggest myths and misconceptions around strength training for women, and how your training journey should be benefiting your mental health, not at the cost of your mental health. Finally, what the nuance that’s missing from the anti-diet/body positivity community to help people who are leaving dieting and want to pursue health?
