Fitness Flipped

Today we’re talking about HABITS :how we make them, how we break them, and why they are so important to our lives. We love thinking about how to make positive change. But it’s a bad habit to keep obsessing about our habits! We all know resolutions don’t work. You know what does? A routine you will actually do. Peloton Instructor and fan favorite Cody Rigsby joins us to talk about the importance of bringing the fun into your fitness and life - in order to keep it all going. Social Psychologist Wendy Wood also joins us for a conversation about what it takes to start new habits and the importance of feedback loops.

Musicians! Sociologists! Comedians! Actors!) to challenge and transform some of our own ideas about health, strength and mental wellness, and maybe even ourselves. What does it really mean to be strong? Does competition actually have anything to do with winning? Is the most important thing about pushing hard actually rest? Together, we’ll find out.

A key to combating stress? Finding your people. Frontline workers have been holding us up these past two years - so what do they do to take care of themselves and prevent stress and burnout during this incredibly challenging time? During covid, female physicians have used Peloton en masse to manage their stress and chase serotonin. Dr. Jagu Anadkat, a neonatal intensive care doctor in St. Louis, organized a group of her coworkers across many departments to ride together once a week. They have held each other up, made each other laugh, and found that some sweat and community goes a long way.

This episode talks about weight & body image. We understand this can be a sensitive and challenging topic. If this is a topic that you find triggering, we suggest listening to another episode of Fitness Flipped. Tunde and her guests are always here to support you!

This is the most challenging theme of the season! Body image. It’s locked into body ideals (which change), pop culture (which changes), and broader society (which always wants us to change). But it never takes into account that bodies also change! We’re asking a lot of questions about where the concept of body ideals come from and what it means to how we perceive ourselves. Professor Nancy Chen, joins us to go deep on the history and how trends of body ideals change over time. Mustard also joins us for a conversation about starting his journey to finding his physical strength. How we perceive our bodies sometimes becomes our greatest obstacle to growth. We’re here to help it become our strength.

Today’s episode features Professor Nancy Chen. You can watch her TED Talk Here. The episode also features Mustard - @mustard.
