The fitness industry - full of meat heads, bro tanks, and protein shakes. While it's fun to make jokes, we can't deny the more insidious side of the fitness industry, such as anti-fat bias, overexercising, and orthorexia. Knowing these dark sides all too well, Abbey Griffith opened Clarity Fitness, the first body positive fitness center in Georgia. She and her team aim to assist clients in releasing shame around their bodies, building confidence, and finding joy in movement.
