Episode Details

After a year of being a very serious gym goer it started to dawn on me that I could have had this my whole life. Growing up in the 90s and early 2000s the focus was on being as skinny as possible, crash dieting, and ripping women apart in the media for being size 6 "whales". PE class was just another class to get through complete with a yearly humiliation ritual. It could have been a chance to learn more about my body and what I was capable of rather than just slogging through. I wanted a more comprehensive experience and didn't receive one nor did I get the ground work to even know where to look for what I was lacking.
