    10. Why We Should Stop Doing Traditional Fitness Assessments with Clients w/ Christin Everson

    Our certifications and traditional formal educational pathways tell us to do physiological assessments with our clients, but what if that is no longer the right thing to do? Christin Everson comes on the Far Side of Fitness to discuss this alternative view on conducting physiological assessments for personal training clients. Christin owns a fitness consulting and education business serving fitness businesses, recreation organizations, and their fitness professionals. Her work helps to redefine the fitness experience for new and returning exercisers by helping fitness professionals provide exercise experiences that facilitate belonging. Christin has an MS in Kinesiology and a BA in Psychology and is an ACE certified Health Coach, Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor, Medical Exercise Specialist, and Behavior Change Specialist.

    9. Did I Ask You What is Boring?

    Maybe you have heard this question in the title of this podcast from a woman who has lit up the internet impersonating her German grandmother. Funny stuff for sure! It got me thinking about something we don't talk about enough as fitness professionals, which is the entertainment value of our work with people. Ask yourself this question...do your clients find you interesting? Do they dread coming to your sessions not because of your exercise knowledge, but because you present a boring experience and they just aren't interested in spending time with you? Digest those questions while you listen/watch this episode. Dr. D's Link: www.doctordarianparker.com Dr. D's Affiliate: Get your flexibility back and prevent injuries with Stick Mobility.

    5. Why Gym and Diet Culture are Anti-Longevity and Anti-Environmentalism

    In today's episode I chat with Dr. Supatra Tovar. We discuss how gym culture and diet culture are the same forms of extremism and how they both are anti-environmental in their current forms. As one of the only clinical psychologists who is also a registered dietitian and certified fitness expert, Dr. Tovar teaches clients how to use research-based techniques in behavioral psychology, nutritional science, and exercise kinesiology to overcome complex challenges. She harnesses the different disciplines of her unique background to show her clients how small modifications to daily habits can transform mindsets, enhance personal relationships, and accelerate professional trajectories. Dr. Tovar has helped clients navigate through trauma, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and grief.
