Ep51 The History of Women’s Fitness

Written By Elizabeth Harris

For some of us, this may be a trip down memory lane! Listen closely as Tara shares facts and once-famous names in the health field from years gone by, and reminds us of some of the exercise fads (some of them, pretty funny!) that have come and gone. 

How many people and routines did you know or remember? And the real question: how many Jane Fonda videos do you still have in the closet?

Join the healing trio in this informative and fun conversation!

Some takeaways:

  • It’s really interesting to note how our society’s views of and approaches to exercise, movement, and body image have changed over the years…

  • It’s also interesting to note what hasn’t changed - and yes, we’re looking at you, diet culture!

Resources mentioned:

What was YOUR takeaway? Share it on socials and don’t forget to tag us so we can share it too!

Thanks for listening - if you feel so inclined, we’d really appreciate a 5-star rating and review on Apple podcasts so that others may discover this show…

Let’s rebrand wellness together!

Elizabeth, Tara & Maria
