  • Summary

  • In this episode Candace and Ilya share their thoughts regarding Big Box Gyms and what makes them huge players in the toxic fitness arena. Ilya also speaks candidly about his very short lived & dreadful experience working for one of the world's largest "Big Box Gyms" (Planet Fitness). Ilya highlights the horrible treatment he received as an employee working for one of the largest organizations that promotes a "Judgement Free Zone". This is a great episode that can really help folks think outside of the box of what toxic fitness looks like from a class status perspective. While also highlighting the predatory nature of all big franchise fitness companies. **UPDATE**Planet Fitness CEO has been quietly funding antigay politicians, including Trump, for years.https://www.queerty.com/planet-fitness-ceo-quietly-funding-antigay-politicians-including-trump-years-20191001Please consider becoming a member of our Patreon to get the latest information about upcoming workshops & giveaways!
