WEBVTT - Let's All Agree to Stop Filming Ourselves in Gyms! 

0:00:01.639 --> 0:00:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Hi, am, welcome back to Bounce Forward with me, Tifhoul.

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land

0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:10.800
<v Speaker 1>of which I'm recording this podcast, the Warunderie people of

0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the Cooler Nation. I pay my respects to elders past

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:20.280
<v Speaker 1>and present. Julia messaged me, Hey, Tiff, what are your

0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:23.919
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on people filming content in public gyms? As someone

0:00:23.960 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 1>who films a lot of your workouts for your community,

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>what do you think about it being done in a

0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:29.840
<v Speaker 1>public space.

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:30.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Now, I do film my workouts a lot, but I

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>film them in my home, their home workouts, in my

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>back garden. Occasionally I'll feel myself exercising in a gym,

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.360
<v Speaker 1>but if I do, my friend will film me. No

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:46.320
<v Speaker 1>one else is around, no one else is in the

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 1>background of the videos, and I make sure that the

0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>timing is right.

0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Famously, a Melbourne gym.

0:00:54.520 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Owner has banned he has banned tripods and filming in

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 1>his gyms, and he's got a lot of gyms in Melbourne,

0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>and I just applaud him. He said, it's become an

0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:09.960
<v Speaker 1>absolute circus where one day he walked into his gym

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>and he nearly tripped over seven tripods, and even at

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 1>the gyms that I train out, and I train around

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:17.959
<v Speaker 1>at different gyms because I've got a lot of friends

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and I've got a lot of colleagues and things, and

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>they say come down and do a session, and I do.

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 2>I love catching up with people. It's like very social

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>for me.

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:29.400
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe how many like drink bottles and the

0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 1>lean their phones up and I'll just be trying to

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:33.680
<v Speaker 1>do a session and all of a sudden, I'm in

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the background of some influencer wearing tiny shorts that are

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>all gathered up her bum crack and she's doing squats

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>right over the camera, and I'm in the back there

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>trying to do my workout, and I think to myself, Hey,

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, for one.

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:52.680
<v Speaker 2>It's a privacy issue.

0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>Not everybody wants people to know when they're at the

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>gym or what they're doing. This is actually a safety issue.

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 1>And I personally get upset because I work in the

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 1>media in fitness. I don't want people knowing which gyms

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I frequent. I've had issues with stalkers and things like

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that in the past. I don't want to be in

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:17.080
<v Speaker 1>the back of your squat video, sweetheart, Like I really don't,

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>and their trip hazards as well. If I'm trying to

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:22.399
<v Speaker 1>train and do more of a drill kind of thing,

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:25.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm tripping over it, I'm working around it. I'm thinking,

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:28.480
<v Speaker 1>oh God, that guy's filming a wait till I can

0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:30.360
<v Speaker 1>get on that piece of equipment.

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.399
<v Speaker 2>And I really do think it should be a blanket

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:35.519
<v Speaker 2>rule across all gyms.

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>That if you want to film, then you either have

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>to take it up with the gym owner and do

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>it professionally where you tag the gym you have some

0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of sponsorship deal, or you are doing it professionally.

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Like if I Tiffany Hall want to film in a gym,

0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>I have to approach the gym owner tag them. There

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.959
<v Speaker 1>may be some other thing I might need to pay

0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:59.799
<v Speaker 1>to use the space. You know, I can't just film

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>uploaded and just do whatever I like. Like people aren't

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 1>even understanding how it works, and I am all.

0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:08.799
<v Speaker 2>About banning this.

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.399
<v Speaker 1>I think that you go to a gym to have

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:15.959
<v Speaker 1>some peace of mind, a sanctuary away from always being

0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:16.799
<v Speaker 1>on your phone.

0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:18.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, people at you.

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:20.919
<v Speaker 1>You want to go to a gym and just kind

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>of escape that, and then you're in the background of

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>some person's video, and these influencers. I'm not an influencer,

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Please never call me an influencer. I'm a fitness expert.

0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>But these influencers without any qualifications are demonstrating bad technique,

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>bad exercise selection, posting it, getting followers, promoting themselves as

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 1>health gurus. And there's me in the background of their

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>video and I think, gosh, you should be paying me

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 1>to be in that video. You know, there's Tivy all

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.320
<v Speaker 1>up the bag trying to do some bicep girls, and

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking, I don't want to be in your video,

0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Like I do not endorse the horrible stuff that you

0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 1>just filmed, and it's not helping anybody.

0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 2>It really isn't helping anyone.

0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>We do not need, you know, these non qualified influencer

0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:16.440
<v Speaker 1>content out there.

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 2>We don't need it, so ban it.

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:21.599
<v Speaker 1>Anyone who is an expert will have their own gym

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.040
<v Speaker 1>or their own space, or do it from home, or

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.919
<v Speaker 1>like be professional about it and hire a space, or

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>have relationships with gym owners where you can film out

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>of hours or in quiet times at the gym where

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you're not interfering with other people. If I need to film,

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 1>I will tell the gym owner and I will go

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>at eleven o'clock when it's dead quiet, and I will

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.800
<v Speaker 1>film there, But you don't need to do it at

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>peak times. It's just crazy, and these influencers are really

0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:49.919
<v Speaker 1>grinding my goat.

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.000
<v Speaker 2>We just don't need it. We just don't need it.

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Kyle reached out to me and said, Tiff loving the pod.

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying really hard with fitness at the moment now.

0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 1>I took your advice with a Dexa scan and trying

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:07.039
<v Speaker 1>to focus on this instead of the scales. But I'm

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 1>confused what body fat percentage should ideally be sitting at Okay,

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>So ideally the body fat percentage varies widely depending on

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>several factors, So your age, your sex, your genetics, your

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:27.920
<v Speaker 1>health goals. What's considered healthy can differ dramatically, and it

0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:32.160
<v Speaker 1>might be optimal for athletic performance or aesthetic preferences.

0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:37.280
<v Speaker 2>It's just so ough. But look, there are general guidelines,

0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:39.480
<v Speaker 2>so I wanted to go through that today a little

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:44.279
<v Speaker 2>bit with you. So for women, essential fat you need

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:48.400
<v Speaker 2>between ten to thirteen percent, but ten to thirteen percent

0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 2>you're looking like a bodybuilder like, you're looking very lean.

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 2>You're going to see the separation between the muscles you're

0:05:55.640 --> 0:06:00.960
<v Speaker 2>going to see really lean, toned. It's very few people

0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:04.159
<v Speaker 2>can get there, right unless you're dedicating your life to

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:06.800
<v Speaker 2>a certain way of eating and a certain way of training.

0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Athletes sit between fourteen and twenty percent fitness, between twenty

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.960
<v Speaker 2>one and twenty four percent, which is where I think

0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:19.280
<v Speaker 2>you should ideally aim to be healthy twenty five to

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 2>thirty one percent, and obesity is considered anything thirty two

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 2>percent and higher. So really twenty one to thirty one percent.

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:33.200
<v Speaker 2>You've got a big range there for men, essential fat

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 2>men can get a lot leaner, so bodybuilders, if you

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 2>really want to see the lines in the muscles, that

0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 2>definition the separation two to five percent athletes six to

0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:49.599
<v Speaker 2>thirteen percent. Fitness is fourteen to seventeen percent, healthy eighteen

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 2>to twenty four percent, and obesity is twenty five percent

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:53.440
<v Speaker 2>and higher.

0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 1>There.

0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Women obviously we carry more.

0:06:56.200 --> 0:07:00.080
<v Speaker 1>Fat stores for childbearing and all of that stuff, so

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 1>they're very different from men to women. If you're an athlete,

0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.760
<v Speaker 1>lower body fat percentages might be more beneficial for performance,

0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>so that comes into play there, especially in sports where

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:16.280
<v Speaker 1>you know excess body mass can hinder performance, and or

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>if it's a weight category sport like taekwondo was for me. However,

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:25.160
<v Speaker 1>extremely low body fat percentages can be detrimental to health,

0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:30.400
<v Speaker 1>so they can really impact your hormonal balance, your reproductive functions,

0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.800
<v Speaker 1>and your overall energy levels. So you don't want to

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 1>be really, really lean like a body It's not about

0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>getting the lowest body fat percentage you possibly can, Okay,

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.520
<v Speaker 1>So I don't want you thinking that for the general

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.680
<v Speaker 1>pop you really want to maintain a body fat percentage

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that is within that healthy range because either end of

0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:56.560
<v Speaker 1>the spectrum can pose health risks such as increase metabolic

0:07:56.640 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>syndromes at high percentages and hormonal disruptions at lower percentages.

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 1>So you really do want to be sitting around that

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>healthy twenty five percent mark. Body fat distribution is very

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>different for men and women. Like I said, we're all

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 1>so different, so you really do have to take that

0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 1>into consideration, especially women. And then there's genetic factors which

0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.240
<v Speaker 1>play a significant role. And it's really important that I

0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>mentioned this because some people naturally settle at a higher

0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 1>or a lower body fat percentage than others, and no

0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>matter how much diet and how much exercise, they're just

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 1>not going to get lower than that set point, and

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 1>we all have a set point and the body is

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:44.560
<v Speaker 1>trained to be at that set point, so you just

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 1>can't push it lower than that sometimes. So measuring your

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 1>body fat percentage is really really good. The Dexter scan,

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 1>fantastic skin fold measurements is also really good.

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>I use that.

0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I use the calipers, They're really good. I always love

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:05.559
<v Speaker 1>skin folds and the Dexter scans. Over weighing yourself. Professional

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:08.960
<v Speaker 1>guidance is also really helpful. So seeing a dietitian, a

0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 1>personal trainer, fitness professional, someone who can guide you if

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:17.400
<v Speaker 1>your goal is to lower your body fat percentage. And

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I really love this language that you're using, Kyle, that

0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:23.680
<v Speaker 1>you're saying you want to lower your body fat percentage.

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:25.920
<v Speaker 1>You don't want to just lose weight. You know that

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.280
<v Speaker 1>you're having Dexa scans, that you're going about this in

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:32.360
<v Speaker 1>such a healthy way, and it's very specific and you

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>are going to get the goals there because you are

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 1>able to measure measure it so carefully. You're not just

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.280
<v Speaker 1>weighing yourself and losing the plot because you've put on

0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 1>a kilo of water weight or something. You know, So

0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.880
