From Gym Bro To Myth Buster. A Conversation with Michael Ulloa
Manage episode 488363670 series 3471022
Michael Ulloa * is well known on social media for myth busting nutri- and fitness-bollocks - he gets posts every day from concerned followers that found yet another load of nonsense in their feed.
Moving from gym bro to myth busting was a gradual process for Michael, as was changing his own relationship to movement and nutrition.
We had such a good conversation and talked about how fitness doesn't have a look, how flexibility can lead to consistency and sustainable habits, how we have normalised unachievable body 'ideals' and how shifting your focus when it comes to exercise can make it joyful rather than punishing.
We also touched on steroid use in the fitness world and we recommend you listen to his podcast episode on this topic - here is the link!
