The TRUTH about Fitness and Personal TrainersFitnessYT 

Big recommend for Colleen Christianson, a dietician who's all about fighting diet culture!!!

Can you do a doctor episode with Dr. Mike?

I had a "free" personal training session from LA Fitness. The poor girl that tried to throw me into various exercises didn't know how to respond when I said I had chronic illness and pain problems (now I know I have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome among other things but I didn't know that at the time, just that everything hurt and I was fatigued all the time). I cried trying to do squats and the exercises she had me do and she was just shocked and kinda shut down and walked away. I left embarrassed and ashamed. So that's an example of what not to do. 😅

Freshman year of high school, my gym period was right after lunch. I didn't know ahead of time when we were going to have to run the mile, and I'm someone who puts in 100% effort into everything. I brought spaghetti for lunch that day. I did not have enough time to digest it.

Oh my gosh. Don't have any autoimmune issues, but I have some mental health issues and trouble with self control. I also have adhd and aspergers and I've struggled so much with sticking with a work out routine after a whole year of going through so much loss and change. I went through a huge break up last June, and it felt like everything went downhill from there. Lately I've been struggling to get back to the gym and I just went on my first walk since my family's dog died last july. Maybe what I need is a personal trainer to help me feel motivated and to keep me from giving up. I was about to buy a treadmill to stick in my bedroom at my grandparent's/mom's house. But a personal trainer just sounds more realistic to me. I know getting out and more active outside of the activity I do at work is something that is proven to be helpful for those who have adhd and struggle with their mental health, I want so desperately to get back out there again.

I heard a story of an overweight man who told his doctor that since he couldn't reach to wipe he got a gymn membership and once a week he would just go sit in their hot tub and let the bubbly, hot water peel off the layers of poop then go shower. Other people would get in the hot tub after and he assumed the heat killed the bacteria so it was fine

Ya ... all I can say is yup! Ive seen & heard it all! I was a pro shop manager at a private high-end tennis & health club back in the early 90s ... provocative clothes, in club hook-ups, after-hours parties ... FROM BOTH TRAINERS & CLIENTS! tennis pros were the worst!

We need dr mike on here !!!!

Rebecca, you have ADHD, as do I. I find food to be a great stim on multiple sensory levels. Once I realized this, it explained my relationship with food so well.

**Me sitting down eating chips watching this** 😃👍🏻

OMG, I'm early! I love these podcast videos! Hope you have a great day, Rebecca! 🩷

I love your channel you desserve all the fame you can get you have the sweetest husband, and tell your guests their so sweet

I just want to gain weight so i can workout my doctor says i should be at least 100lb before i start tryi g to gain weight cus theres nothing to use. I have this wierd thing where i feel my digestion and i hate that feeling but im trying so hard to eat more

Was nobody aware of the large amount of noise as if someone keeps hitting a microphone or something? 😭 It's very distracting for my ADHD brain and triggers the same feeling in me that things like hearing people chew or snore do. Like something is crawling under my skin 😩. I listened through the whole episode on Spotify because I didn't want to miss it but I really hate it

why aren’t the curses bleeped out? are they not going to be anymore?

I love this! The only suggestion would be to stop touching the table as the sound is really jarring on the ears.

Greetings from Los Angeles, the most beautiful city in the world.

Ugh I hated this. So weight focused. So unhealthy. I’d love it if you could have someone on in the intuitive eating and HAES space

Spread the message guys! Rebbeca you should do a doctor episode with Dr. Mike!!! Edit: This isn’t a copied comment I just agree with @stacyk123 that you should collaborate with Dr. Mike!
