Holistic Motion
Welcome to Holistic Motion, the podcast hosted by Andrew Briggs, a seasoned personal trainer, massage therapist, content creator, and nutrition coach. Join us as we delve into the fascinating intersection of fitness and social issues, challenging the status quo and providing a platform for thought-provoking discussions.
Andrew's passion for starting this podcast stemmed from a growing concern over the prevalence of generic answers and incomplete information in the fitness industry. With his extensive expertise and diverse background, he offers a holistic view on a wide range of topics, ensuring that no stone is left unturned.
Prepare yourself for captivating episodes that tackle pressing social issues within the fitness world. From thought-provoking dialogues on the impact of trans athletes on women's rights, to deep dives into men's mental health and the connections between music, exercise, and well-being, our podcast explores it all. We also take a critical look at the acceptance of obesity in society, examining the consequences for individuals and the broader community.
Andrew's unique insight as a Chek practitioner, powerlifter, bodybuilder, and massage therapist allows him to approach these subjects from various angles. By incorporating an open-minded perspective and a willingness to explore conservative topics related to fitness, he brings a fresh and inclusive approach to the conversation.
Holistic Motion aims to empower our listeners by distilling complex subjects into easily understandable information. We debunk fitness myths, expose corporate manipulations, and challenge governmental misconceptions, providing you with the tools to become self-sufficient in your health and wellness journey.
Expect a podcast that strikes a balance between serious discussions and light-hearted moments. While we dedicate the majority of our content to in-depth explorations of these important topics, we sprinkle in humor, jokes, and memes to keep the conversation engaging and relatable.
Our podcast is designed for men and women, aged 18 to 44, who are tired of being misled by health and fitness lies from corporations and governments. If you're seeking reliable information, a comprehensive understanding of social issues in fitness, someone whose generally liberal-minded but not afraid of conservative conversations, and a community of like-minded individuals, Holistic Motion is the podcast for you.
As we continue to grow, we have exciting plans in store, including live stream Q&A sessions and interviews with influential guests from various backgrounds within the fitness industry.
Join Andrew Briggs on Holistic Motion, and embark on a journey to reclaim your health, challenge the norm, and embrace a holistic approach to fitness and well-being.
