This episode originally dropped on June 26, 2023Louise Green envisions a world where everyone can achieve their athletic potential regardless of size and, for 17 years, she's been creating that world for people in larger bodies through her coaching, programming, and education at bigfitgirl.com and the Size Inclusive Academy.She joins Sara Gross to discuss athleticism in a larger body. Weight bias is still so rampant in our culture that it's normalized, but imagine navigating a world that is not made for you — from small doors and cramped fitness studios, to buff trainers and classes focused only on getting lean and “earning a bikini body.” You're literally walking into a space where people don't want to look like you.It's a traumatic experience, which is why some in larger bodies avoid fitness altogether, especially in public spaces.It's not laziness or lack of dedication. It's not an unwillingness to do the work. It's the impossible task of trying to fit into an unrealistic “one size fits all” standard and this is the cultural divide Louise is working to close. She and Sara discuss:Louise's personal entry into the fitness space and the stereotypes she had to overcome to be recognizedOur culture's obsession with thinness Why avoiding fitness is often a trauma responseWhy people in larger bodies are often devalued How she started working with this population and why she feels it's still important to create safe spacesThe details of developing curriculums for trainers and fitness centers on how to work specifically with larger-bodied athletesIdentifying Body positivity vs. body neutralityOur complicated relationship with the word, “fat” and the value of owning your own languageHow to work with companies and industries in helping them change and expand their offeringsFuture courses, programs, and books to support this audienceAs she says, “If you're hating on yourself all the time, there's no way that you can rise to your highest potential.” This is why she creates programming specifically for women in larger bodies because she undoubtedly believes that anybody and any body can be an athlete.

We talk about plus-size fitness and the barriers that exist in society, the body positivity movement, and how it’s almost always our mind that holds us back and not our bodies when it comes to fitness and physical activity. Louise shares how she helps women overcome the mental barriers of starting physical activity, including through her new Big Fit Girl app. We talk about motherhood and entrepreneurship, and how (or if) she finds balance. She is an inspiration and she is changing the conversation when it comes to fitness ideals. It’s a fascinating chat and I can’t wait for you to hear it. Go to www.momcamplife.com/bigfitgirl for the full show notes and Louise's bio.

Is your sole purpose for exercising is to lose weight? Does this take the joy out of fitness for you? If the answer is yes, you may want to consider separating working out from weight loss. Today we’re talking with Louise Green, founder of the fitness brand Big Fit Girl. For over a decade she has forged a career as a plus-size personal trainer, global fitness coach, fitness activist and author who is changing the narrative and the idealistic standards of our fitness culture. In this episode, we’ll talk about how the pursuit of weight loss can interfere with wellbeing, ways to measure success that don’t involve the scale, why the “no pain, no gain” mentality is problematic, and how to make fitness fun again.   Find the full post over at foodheavenmadeeasy.com   Produced by Dear Media

Louise Green is a badass. Her passion is to create a more inclusive world. Her work focuses mainly on women (including herself) who are often polarized due to their size. Louise reached out a while ago to work with Skirt Sports on one of the projects she is spearheading within her Big Fit Girl empire. I knew immediately that I needed to learn more about her work, so Louise and I finally had today's incredible conversation which really boils down to this... What it means to find happiness and health no matter what your circumstances are. Sound note: I want to apologize for the sound quality. It’s not bad but it’s not as good as in-person interviews. Louise sounds a little tinny, like she’s sitting in a metal room or something, so hang in there. The conversation is so good that I’m sure you won’t really notice too much! Today we talk about: Big Fit Girl: Louise's business and philosophy Diet culture: how the entire industry is based on failure Becoming sober Changing her life: quitting smoking and starting running! Invisibility Fitness Trauma Shaming Why All or Nothing is dangerous Louise is open and honest about her her journey to health, her struggle with alcoholism, and her quest for self-love. All she truly wants is to help others find happiness. I love when she says, “the more we can see the more we can be.” I loved it so much I named this episode after that quote! It’s all about celebrating each other as we continue to seek our full potential – at all stages of the journey. Because when we have support from positive like-minded people, we will enjoy it so much more.

I just launched a project to help me improve the podcast, continue to spend time and energy on it, and someday get enough support so I can do all my interviews in person which enhances everyone's experience. It’s called Patreon. Some other well-known podcasts (like my friend Rich Roll who will be my next guest!) also use this service. Basically, if you love and appreciate what I put out on the podcast, you can now back my work with donations at whatever level you feel is appropriate. I didn’t create any tiers; you can decide. Most people are supporting with $5-10/month which is incredible. Please hop over to patreon.com/nicoledeboom – when I opened my account, Patreon asked me to describe what I am creating, and off the cuff I wrote "Nicole DeBoom is creating a more positive world." That’s how I hope you feel when you listen to my show. Thank you so much for your support!

Media and popular culture have inundated us with images of lean, muscular bodies meant to represent fitness. The irony is that in the dictionary definition of fitness there is absolutely no mention of appearance - the definition is all about the ability of an organism to adapt, survive and perform which means that maybe we need to rethink how we communicate the image of fitness. Louise Green is a Personal Trainer out of Vancouver, BC, Canada who focuses on helping plus-sized individuals improve their fitness. Louise wrote the book "Big Fit Girl: Embrace the Body you Have" and has become an important influencer on Instagram. On episode 103 of All About Fitness Louise explains why she got into fitness, how the fitness industry could do a better job of working with plus-sized individuals and shares her message that fitness is about ability, not appearance!  Visit Louise on the internet HERE  Order a copy of Big Fit Girl: Embrace the Body You Have Get inspired!

In this episode, I interview Louise Green of Big Fit Girl and she was plain amazing. She is the first coach ever, or at least that I know of that has a completely different body type than the typical trainer. She is opening a door way for many out there who might not look like a typical person trying to lose weight. Everyone of every size is an athlete and weight loss and health sometimes doesn't look like the same thing for everyone else.

Fit. Fat. Thin. Plus-size. Body Positive. Diet-Culture. Fat Activism. What IS all this? Why is "food" such a volatile topic? Meredith and the amazing Louise Green --- two "big fit girls" talk about fitness, food, weight, stigma, triathlon and more. In her book Big Fit Girl, Louise Green describes how the fitness industry fails to meet the needs of plus-size women and thus prevents them from improving their health and fitness. By telling her own story of how she stopped dieting, got off the couch, and unleashed her inner athlete—as well as showcasing similar stories from other women—Green inspires other plus-size women to do the same. Green also provides concrete advice, based on the latest research, about how to get started, how to establish a support team, how to choose an activity, what kind of clothing and gear work best for the plus-size athlete, how to set goals, and how to improve one’s relationship with food. And she stresses the importance of paying it forward—for it is only by seeing plus-size women in leadership roles that other plus-size women will be motivated to stop trying to lose weight and get fit instead.
