Intimidated to start lifting? blame racism/sexism!

What could have been a valuable, informative podcast episode of course gets siderailed by woke culture blaming racism/ sexism/ binaryism etc. for the narrator feeling intimidated to start strength training. Starting any new endeavor can be intimidating for anyone; it was laughable that the narrator felt the need to go this route. What a waste of time this episode was and that's sad since this was the first NPR Health Kit episode I've listened to. I hope the rest are better.
