When I left the hospital, I couldn’t walk more than 10 feet. Prior to that, I spent over a decade in a toxic relationship with food & my body defined by alternating between overeating and under eating and over exercising and under exercising. Now, I’m in the best shape of my life and my kink is making boys insecure at the gym.
Hannah Leboff was a key part of that journey. An instructor at my gym, whose strength training class I’ve taken weekly for nearly 4 years now. Hannah is a fitness instructor who I owe my body to. She is certified in literally everything, taught me to not ‘fear’ weights as a woman, and inspires me weekly.
However, Hannah wasn’t always that way. She also spent over a decade encompassed by literally every eating disorder ever: anorexia, bulimia, orthorexia, binge eating - you name it, she had it. Ignited by mental health issues like ADHD and depression, she spent years hopeless and thinking she had no way out.
Like me, Hannah found the gym. Fitness became a source of empowerment, not something to fear. She dedicated herself to healing her body and brain. Now; she’s a new mom, killer instructor, strong af, and a glowing light in my life.
The brain & body are connected, a little too connected. Well, actually, that depends on how you view it. Working out can be a source of happiness, community, self respect, pride and relaxation or diet & exercise can be something to agonize over, try to control in negative ways, and destroy one’s self confidence, love, and happiness.
Exercise is a crucial and often ignored part of mental health. It saved my brain and dragged both Hannah and I out of some nasty dark places. Prioritizing exercise is prioritizing the brain.
