TikToker: Going to the Gym So You Can Lose Weight Is Fatphobic

‘Wanting to work out does not make anyone fatphobic but the motivations why you might go to the gym do’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

UNKNOWN FEMALE: “Are you going to the gym so you can get a flat stomach, or are you going to the gym so you can build a stable core and have better posture? Are you motivated to go to the gym so that you can lose weight, or are you focused on increasing muscle and bone density? Do you only consider a workout good when you feel sore or tired the next day, or do you look to feel energized and awake after working out? Are you prioritizing leg day because you want your butt to look super delicious, or is it because you know strong glutes help protect your knees and your back? Wanting to work out does not make anyone fatphobic but the motivations why you might go to the gym do."
