In an interview withVogue India, Dr. Bamford explained that an all-consuming preoccupation with exercise that doesn’t meet self-imposed fitness goals may lead to anxiety and a sense of inadequacy, which can become problematic in the long run.
When approaching exercise, Snowden urges people to embody a holistic mindset. Instead of dedicating yourself to gym workouts, he suggests going outside for a brisk walk or a short run to be outdoors for some fresh air.And if you’re going through bouts of anxiety and self-questioning, Snowden advises seeking assistance from a professional who can properly evaluate yourfitness goals.“Unless you are a professional athlete, your fitness goal should be to achieve overall health and wellness to enhance your quality of life,” he said.

Another way to approach working out is to keep things fun and lighthearted. According to body image psychologistDr. Nadia Craddock, finding a healthy balance between taking exercise seriously and being silly about it is essential to avoid falling into unhealthy obsessions.“Think about physical activity as a chance to be silly and playful and an opportunity to have fun and make friends,” Dr. Craddock told Vogue India, adding that following the latest fitness trends and tracking every step you take isn’t always necessary to reap the benefits of exercise.
