Description

Lindsay unpacks the trending and controversial topic of 'snatching your waist', highlighting her concerns with the misinformation and toxic culture prevalent in the fitness industry. She critiques fitness influencers and educators who react to videos by shaming and bullying, rather than correcting misinformation constructively. Lindsay explains that achieving a snatched waist involves much more than specific exercises, discussing the roles of genetics, body fat percentage, and calorie deficit in influencing body shape. She emphasizes the impossibility of spot reduction and cautions against unrealistic body goals perpetuated by misleading fitness advice on social media. The episode is a call for a more informed and compassionate approach to fitness, urging listeners to focus on their genetics and health rather than unattainable standards.Topics:0:00 No, It’s not a thing00:54 My love hate relationship with snatching your waist03:06 What does snatching your waist mean?07:54 What contributes to the snatched waist?11:16 Your genetics are your own14:02 Let's talk about abs16:58 Following goal people vs information people
