Anti-fatness and the focus on weight loss does not need to be part of exercise, despite its prevalence in the [toxic] Fitness Industry. Anti-fatness encourages dangerous practices and behaviors for people, especially when they are supported by anti-fat fitness professionals. When you take away weight loss as a goal, exercise can focus on mobility/functionality, stamina, and strength, which improve quality of life. These can be practiced at any size, age, or ability.

Most people face serious barriers to weight loss which render it not worthwhile as a primary goal.
