Video discussing replacement of body shaming

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUZHvVTFGQQ <—– My youtube video

This video is to promote the use of words that mean the same thing but shouldn’t be used to discriminate, put down or make light of someone but to instead give an honest opinion about yourself and the ones you love without “beating behind the bush”.  These words should be used my fitness professionals and general population.  I know there is no “right” way to talk about weight, but if you keep the focus on health and not about physique; I think people will feel more comfortable talking about weight. We tend to associate health with body and that shouldn’t be the case. I promote good health and better bodies. I do not promote have a nice body and screw your health. LOL. One day people will get on board and worry less about their abs and more about the long term effects of medicines, exercises, foods, ect on their health. I think having a nice body is a bonus to having a great health. I want people to feel confident with themselves and not shun fitness because they believe everyone has to have a gold standard body. Nobody said the journey would be easy, but I am here to help when things get rocky.

P.S the use of these words doesn’t solve our problems 100 percent, but they are a start and might lead to even  better ways of expressing body weight. I would love to hear everyone’s opinion! thank you!

Your fitness blogger,

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.
