Ep 131 - How To Just Eat It - Chapter 10 - Intuitive Movement, Part 2
Welcome to this special series of Don’t Salt My Game celebrating the release of my new book How to Just Eat It. For the next several weeks, I’ll be posting two new episodes of the podcast (Tuesdays and Fridays) that correspond with a chapter of the book to help you take your learning further and deepen your intuitive eating practice. How To Just Eat It is out now! Episode 12 of this series will drop on Friday 12th Jan!
In today’s episode, I’m talking to Jake Gifford, a personal trainer and doctoral researcher at Brunel University London whose aim is to reframe fitness and what it means to move our bodies. In this episode, we’re talking about the bigger-picture and socio-political considerations that often get left out of the conversations about movement.
In this episode we talk about:
How a lot of public health rhetorics around moving our bodies make oversimplified recommendations Healthism Some of the problematic discourse around how exercise is described e.g. “exercise is medicine” Looking at the bigger picture of movement Factors that could stop an individual from engaging in movement Hierarchies of exercise - and why they’re problematic How to make movement more inclusive Issues with movement being associated with morality Structural and social determinants of health
Jake talks us through how movement has historically been associated with moral righteousness and personal responsibility; as well what we can do to shift the narrative so ensure it becomes more inclusive and accessible.
