BroScience: Ep 12 Can you be healthy at any size?

Join the BroScience team as they break down one of the most controversial topics in the fitness industry, Health At Every Size (HAES). What does it mean, where do they stand and what science backs it up? Travis and Craig unpack some of the common questions around BMI, fitness at any size and whether or not you can be overweight and objectively healthy compared to people of standard weight.
