To comprehend or try to consider all of the influencing factors on human morphology would be crazy . However things such as trends influenced by peers and social media mustn’t be disregarded. As an example those largely in their thirties or forties, particularly females would have developed both physiological changes and psychological influences brought about by the low fat and concurrently low calorie dieting trends of that era. Men weren’t exposed heavily to aesthetic ‘expectancies’ until probably the mid to late 80s so dietary culture hadn’t yet taken hold to the same extent. A study by the national eating disorders association in 2012 noted that over 50% of all 9-10 year old girls felt better about themselves when on a diet. A somewhat disturbing statistic that exemplifies the responsibility we have as figures of authority and influencers in dietary practices. We, alongside the people we influence may ultimately be chasing media and society driven ideals that may never be achieved. What is however tantamount to our success as coaches is our ability to improve the perception people have over their own bodies.This alongside a better, more sustainable and healthier relationship with food we, by default achieve the favourable by-product of an improvement in both composition and health. - N1 Nutrition Programming 2014 my first e-book.
