They live in denial and are even hostile to the idea of losing fat because most of them have tried and failed several times to fix the problem. Mostly due to the lack of education and following the "calories in calories out" dogma which clearly doesn't work and will never work.may be even hostile to it (exactly due to the similar psychological patterns for which they are overweight).
Planet Fitness was designed as a safe-space for middle aged moms and men that are scared of barbells.I thought this was the concept behind Planet Fitness?
Cheap memberships, no expressiveness allowed, and free pizza at the front desk?
Thank you JAJT, however I had some sort of addiction (not to food) myself and I really was not inclined to solve any of it, actually not even aware of the damage. I really believe that addiction makes you think you don't even have a problem in the first place. I am doubtful that many people are desperate to address it, but I'd love to be proven wrong.they are desperate to address it, but feel powerless to do so
What I fear is that what I have in mind is not really scalable. I believe that each person should be supported almost 1-to-1...This is an amazing idea, definitely has the NEED in CENTS.
Yes, I have talekd about a gym for semplicity, but I actually have in mind a physical space (gym) that would be the center of a community of people working towards the same goal through a holistic process. In my idea, each person should be awaken from their numbness with the power of words, data and images, but really scaring the shit out of them, not just presenting a chart.If you want to help people to lose weight, think about nutrition, communities and movement.
Very true, but overweight people would not be there eating all-you-can-eat. They would be there to improve themselves. The saying is correct, but it's related to the approach and attitude of people; the physical aspect is just an indicator of attitude and approach. If you hang out with super motivated overweight people that are working to lose weight, in the long term some positive change will come, I think.You are the average of five people you spend the most time with... so how they can change in environment like that?
