Everywhere you look, the messages are there. Ten days to drop 20 pounds. Gluten is making you fat. Twelve minutes a day can get you a bikini-ready body by summer. It sounds exciting, but the real message you’re getting is this: Your body doesn’t measure up - in fact, you don’t either - so you better do something about it...and quick! 

What if the solution isn’t a new diet or another fitness program? 

In The Elephant in the Gym, award-winning personal trainer and health coach Gillian Goerzen gives you a healthy and kind way to approach your fitness and well-being. Grounded in science, self-compassion, and Goerzen’s personal journey through the "body hatred battleground", you’ll learn to ditch the diet, reclaim an empowered relationship with your body, and become healthier as a result.

With The Elephant in the Gym, you’ll discover:
