    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.

    7. Reverse Group Fitness Marketing and Focusing on Pain Free Movement w/ Ingrid Knight-Cohee

    In this episode of The Far Side of Fitness I sit down with award winning fitness professional Ingrid Knight-Cohee. We get into all things Group Fitness and why should be marketing fitness classes and fitness in general in a very different way! Ingrid is a thought leader and sought after presenter with an expertise in fitness programming, management, and leadership. She was recently recognized as the 2024 IDEA Fitness Leader of the Year, representing excellence in fitness leadership and unparalleled innovation.

The popular circular class structure engages all movers through intensity level options in the spirit of earth, wind and fire, with all movements driven by soul-stirring Afrobeats.

    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.
