144: The Gains And Pains of America’s Exercise Obsession with Natalia Mehlman Petrzela

America is more obsessed with fitness than we’ve ever been…but somehow the unhealthiest we’ve ever been. How is this so, and how we can break the barriers that Fitness + Wellness Culture tells us we must subscribe to?

Natalia Mehlman Petrzela, the author of FIT NATION, is here to answer these questions and more. For her, fitness is, as her new book describes, “a social justice issue. She argues that the fight for a more equitable exercise culture will be won only by revolutionizing fitness culture at its core, making it truly inclusive for all bodies in a way it has never been.”
