The Benefits of Sports & Fitness in Adolescence - S5 E6

Body Positivity: feeling good about your body and the way it looks. Body positivity is rooted in loving yourself and gaining self-confidence.

This week's 8th grade hosts, Saif and Julius partner up to interview classmates Logan and Mukund. The teens take on the topic of sports, exercise, and general fitness in middle school life. They bring up life balance with sports and academics, fun vs. competitive participation, the mental benefits of exercise, weightlifting and other fitness basics, and advice to listeners for pursuing fitness in teen years.

Tune in soon as our other two hosts, Ava and Dinora, take over with a new topic and a new set of guests. Make sure to subscribe to keep up to date on our podcast episodes throughout the school year.
