About this listen

Everywhere you look, the messages are there. Ten days to drop 20 pounds. Gluten is making you fat. Twelve minutes a day can get you a bikini-ready body by summer. It sounds exciting, but the real message you’re getting is this: Your body doesn’t measure up - in fact, you don’t either - so you better do something about it...and quick!

What if the solution isn’t a new diet or another fitness program?

In The Elephant in the Gym, award-winning personal trainer and health coach Gillian Goerzen gives you a healthy and kind way to approach your fitness and well-being. Grounded in science, self-compassion, and Goerzen’s personal journey through the "body hatred battleground", you’ll learn to ditch the diet, reclaim an empowered relationship with your body, and become healthier as a result.

With The Elephant in the Gym, you’ll discover:

  • No gym membership is required to be fit.
  • Why traditional goal-setting is tripping you up.
  • The one thing you need to set the foundation for success.
  • What you can do to get started today.
  • Practical strategies, tools, and tips to help you be fit and healthy - for life!

Deeply personal, backed by detailed studies and real-life stories, you’ll design a lifestyle fit for you and no one else (it’s not one size fits all - and it never should be). The Elephant in the Gym takes your eyes off of the scale and puts the power of creating a healthy life in your hands.

NOT a body positive book!

just another diet culture book selling that only fit/healthy people can be happy. Not only it isn't helpful as it can be very triggering to those struggling with eating disorders.
