028 - My journey with CrossFit, performance and body dysmorphia

from Beyond The Mirror · host Jonny Landels

Today I'm bringing you a brief history into my competitive CrossFit days and my relationship with my body. I'll teach you why actually undereating led to worse performance and more injury. I also talk about how intentional fat loss is a red herring for what you actually want. It leads to more preoccupation with weight and shape, less body satisfaction, and less sustainability with healthy behaviours. I'll show you how to avoid those things AND get what you really want.
