So insightful. I was really negatively influenced by the fitness industry as well back in the day. I'm glad that I've learned to look with a more skeptical eye at these corporate fitness/ "wellness" giants and see what works for me. Blogs like yours help myself and others immensely to come to terms with this!
Great read Kiersten, and totally agree that the fitness industry have a lot to answer for. They’ve brainwashed people to think they need to “push it to the limit” every time they exercise, rather than just do some movement they enjoy to get the endorphins. A cruisey 20 minute jog does it for me, but it took me a while to realise that after retiring from sport.
