Value Sustainable Health

If you are looking for an episode that makes you think, provides new perspectives and encouragement that you are not alone in your fitness struggles, these are the girls for you. Everything from the stigma of CrossFit and the fitness realms preference to value output over mechanics, to the importance of separating the ideas of health and aesthetics into two very different categories, and so much more are covered today.

Often we are so focused on the achievement of our goal that we forget about the ‘why’ behind our actions. Kristin and Taylor are here to drop some truth bombs and help you get out of the loop of unfulfillment to find something that really works for your physical and mental health.

Kristin and Taylor believe that you should stop putting your performance on a pedestal and find what works for your long term health.

Quotes

“When we are prioritizing output, when we feel like you have to be dead on the floor after every single workout and that’s the bar for the workout, that’s the only place I give a little bit of a side eye and think oh, I feel like we should stop and ask some questions right here.” (16:30)

“Health is contextual. It is going to change depending on who you are and where you are, it’s different for everybody and what that looks like. So if you are just putting a big stamp on something and saying ‘this is what health looks like’, that I think where the error comes in.” (22:28)

“Health ultimately is there to support your life, it should not be your life.” (37:54)

“Until you literally go all the way down, to these foundational elements of what you believe to be true about yourself in the world, you really are going to have a hard time seeing much else change in your life.” (56:10)
