What is Fitness?-Part 1

In the inaugural episode of the Fitness in Philosophy podcast,

About the Podcast:


The Fitness in Philosophy podcast is dedicated to discussing the
intersection between concepts in philosophy and their connection
with fitness. Each episode we talk about a particular
philosophical concept like autonomy, knowledge, virtue, or truth
and discuss how that idea connects with coaching fitness,
participating in fitness as an individual, and fitness culture at
large.

and Robby Gustin.
