S4 | EP.17 The Secret Sunday Session with Kyle Bruce
*Trigger warning! Discusses content concerning eating disorders.
As we venture into Olympic territory we bring you another inspiring athlete heading to Paris, Australian Olympic Weightlifter, Kyle Bruce.
Kyle shares his struggle with body dysmorphia as an adolescent, and how losing his father influenced his need to obsess over diets, performance and his body.
In this episode we start the conversation around disordered eating and body ideals for men, the “gym-junkie” era, the impacts of avoiding grief, enhancing performance, and what it takes to be an Olympic Weightlifter heading to Paris 2024.
