Neuroplasticity, defined as the brain's capacity to adapt and reorganize itself, is essential for the body's movement and response to stimuli. This concept is significant in fitness, where structured training programs utilize neuroplasticity to enhance movement skills and efficiency, as well as correct dysfunctional movements.

The fitness industry, like many others, has long struggled with issues related to the range of body types and weight bias. It's vital to recognize that fitness is not a one-size-fits-all journey and that regardless of body type or weight, everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. By acknowledging and addressing biases we may have, we can foster a more inclusive environment that promotes overall wellness, and we can make needed adjustments in our thinking and behavior.
