Promoting Representation of All Bodies in Fitness with Dr. Rachel Millner

The Power in Motion Podcast

On today’s episode we discuss why it’s important for ALL of us to see all sizes of bodies represented in the fitness space.
Our guest, Dr. Rachel Millner is on a mission to make fitness more accessible to folks in larger bodies .

During this conversation Rachel and I talked about:

• Rachel’s personal eating disorder history and how that was handled when she was at a higher and lower weight
• How she repaired her disordered relationship with movement and the role Peleton played in that.
• What Rachel plans to bring to Peleton WHEN she is hired as a cycling instructor
• How inclusion and representation in fitness spaces helps improve fitness outcomes for everyone.

PLEASE! Support Rachel’s campaign to become a fat cycling instructor at Peleton.
