Conversation Starter: Fat Club in Pro Sport - Yay or Nay?
Manage episode 285353429 series 2461601
Within pro sport internationally there is a practice that can be found in many teams and clubs - both genders and not specific to weight making sports. This podcast is all about bringing this practice into the light to allow for respectful and considerate discussions to consider it's place and if there is a better way to achieve the result that it is aiming for.
Fat Clubs are present with it's members inaugurated with the goal of weight loss - often with the goal of reduced skinfolds (a body composition measurement). However, is this division within a squad or team something that helps or hinders the cause? What impacts to the individual athlete do these practices present and how may the impact their relationship with food or exercise?
We discuss all these thoughts and ideas in this podcast and encourage all comments and feedback. We don't claim to have the answers, but would like to bring a voice to a different perspective and an opportunity to give a voice to the athlete experience.
