We’ve been avoiding this episode for some time, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t cover some of the more serious issues in fitness.
Eating disorders, body dysmorphia, muscle dysmorphia, and other diet and fitness related disorders are real and affect more people than you may think.
In this episode we explore some times when we, as fitness professionals, have recognized disorders in clients. We chat through instances where we needed to refer those clients to more specialized mental health providers. We also offer up some self checks that will help the listener understand if their issues are within the scope of practice of fitness professionals or if you should seek out additional assistance.
Thanks for listening, leaving a review, and sharing with a friend!
