Introduction
What counts when it comes to movement? Is 5 mins enough? What if you don't sweat? What if you can't 'motivate' yourself? Is rest bad? Where do variations and rest fit? Does play have a place?
In this episode I am joined by Weight-Inclusive, Joyful Movement Coach and Virtual, Certified Personal Trainer Jamie Carbaugh for an entertaining and thought-provoking exploration of movement when we remove the standard weight-centric, capitalist, hustle-culture, ableist and anti-fat perspective. What's even possible?
This episode explores:
- what if you feel like you 'should' exercise and/or you don't like it
- variations feeling not good enough
- rest and play being dirty words and what happens when we view them as resistance and core to movement as a sustained, supportive practice?
- what counts when it comes to movement
- where motivation fits
- what does it look like to measure physical fitness without a weight or aesthetic focus?
