The SHIFT Show

Maybe one of the most important podcasts to ever come out; with Christina Anderson registered Dietitian and Board Certified Paediatric Specialist who specialises in eating disorders. We discuss HOW gymnasts feel and think about food. The MYTHS around Nutrition and HOW they are perpetuated in our sports culture. There is NO ONE ‘GYMNAST BODY’.
