    Excellent talk highlighting the importance of keeping fit and healthy, as opposed to being obsessed with body image. Leanne emphasises that the focus should be on keeping one's body healthy and fit rather than striving for an unachievable body shape.

    Thanks Leanne, you're absolutely right, I am 49 years old and I started my daily work out routine 4 months ago and it feels good

    I have been on a fitness journey for years on end now. I just came to the realization today that, I used to press the 6mph button on the treadmill but now I run 6 miles in an hour on the track! Came a long way, and still further to go!

    Watching this was a good thing. I am trying to come to terms with the fact that I can be fit, but not look like I did at 30. Am I still obsessed with my body image? Oh yea, but I am "getting there" in regards to fitness.

    Great talk! This could also be applied to men using steroids. At its core the issue is the same; putting aesthetics before good health.

    Really great talk & so important (especially for the younger generation) - too many people are chasing physical perfection which is unachievable & is likely to end up in a very unhealthy lifestyle.

    • @neverforgettodofacepulls782

      Actually I'd disagree. If you're on the athlean x program or just watching their RUclips videos, their tips can help you achieve physical perfection and stresses life long fulfilling nutrition without any repercussions whatsoever. It feels so good to be in this generation.

    Brilliant talk thanks Leanne! Absolutely agree 100% Let's all focus on staying healthy and happy rather than skinny being the ideal. Love that work you're doing in shifting paradigms and your de-bunking myths. Keep it up!

    Exercise can help you feel energized and improve your sleep and overall well-being. we all face sleeping issues at some point but herbs can be really soothing at this time like brahmi, shankhpushpi which are available in planet ayurveda in capsule and tablet form.

    Body shape and weight does not determine fitness, consistency to a routine makes you the fitness version of yourself. You could have genetics to carry extra fatty tisue but be able to do backflips and parkour at an expert level. Stop looking at the image of fitness and start looking the actual function of fitness.

    This is a concept that will not meet well with Americans. For instance... We buy our cars on looks alone. This is why carmakers like GM and Cadillac are selling like hotcakes. Worst, most unreliable, on average, cars ever made in America came from those 2 companies, which are really the same company. Yet Americans slurp them up like a super sweet, sugarfied kale shake.
