In this episode, we dig into three common beliefs in nutrition and fitness that just don’t make sense. This is an episode that will straighten out some of the facts for you surrounding topics like taking time off of the gym, Myth #1: If I take time off the gym, I’ll lose all my progress. Myth #2: As long as I exercise, I can eat whatever I want. Myth #3: I should be taking super greens/superfood supplements for my health. We dig into the reason why these myths are perpetuated, why they might feel really real in your life, the truth and untruths behind them, and how you can apply what you’ve learned here to your life. In our preamble this week, we talk about some Instagram drama that popped up on the inter webs this past week from an influencer named @shona_vertue, which leads us into a conversation about inclusion, sexism, and male gaze. We would love to hear from you on this topic- what would your approach be in this situation?
