#88 - It's Time to Rethink Body Fat

Weights and Plates Podcast

Many people (most?) get into fitness because they want to look better. At least, that's a primary reason. It's a worthwhile goal -- looking better is a gateway drug to performing better after all, becuase your performance (i.e. your strength and conditioning) drives your body composition. There is a big breakdown in what many people perceive as the ideal or even just good body composition, however, and what is realistically achievable for the average person without PEDs. Social media and pop culture has warped people's idea of what a good physique looks like, and what healthy body fat percentages look like on strong, muscular men and women.

In today's episode, Dr. Santana and Coach Trent attempt to rebalance the scales of body composition, and point out that strong, functional men and women don't have to be (and shouldn't be) lean and ripped to be healthy.
