Ep. 48: Black Health is More Than Fitness - a podcast by Summit Strength & CrossFit SSP

Today, Gabi continues her talk with Melissa McLeod and Shanique Allen. The three came to know each other after being part of the same fitness community FB group. This discussion focuses on Black health and the barriers to it. At the end of the day, #BlackHealthMatters means a lot more than just the foods we eat and the exercises we do.
Disclaimer: While we are talking broadly about Black people and people of color (POC), it is important that you do not walk away with the narrative that all Black people and POC are lower-income and/or are struggling with their health and fitness. Middle and upper-class POC can experience some of the same struggles and White societal norms discussed in this episode, or not be as negatively impacted by them.
