Recently a number of well meaning individuals have suggested I promote myself as a "plus sized" fitness and yoga person 😳
Nothing says "you're fat" like being told to use your belly as a sales tactic
Nevertheless people do do this. There are an increasing number of "plus sized" female fitness influencers
Up to them what they do, obviously
But one should never use own body as a selling point, whatever it looks like
Because then you have to keep looking the same to make sales
Also - I never saw a male personal trainer market themself as "plus sized"
I've worked in a gym - let me tell you that the men can look an absolute state and still make sales based on their knowledge
Yes, some of them sell based on how they look
Bet it sucks when they they "hit the wall" 🤣
What my body looks like whilst going through the fu***ng menopause doesn't make me less good, it doesn't erase my experience
