Sobre este áudio
The untold history of women's exercise culture, from jogging and Jazzercise to Jane Fonda.
Author of The Cut's viral article shared thousands of times unearthing the little-known origins of barre workouts, Danielle Friedman explores the history of women's exercise and how physical strength has been converted into other forms of power.
Only in the '60s, thanks to a few forward-thinking fitness pioneers, did women begin to move en masse. In doing so, they were pursuing not only physical strength, but personal autonomy.
Exploring barre, jogging, aerobics, weight training and yoga, Danielle Friedman tells the story of how, with the rise of late 20th-century feminism, women discovered the joy of physical competence - and how, going forward, we can work to transform fitness from a privilege into a right.

"Friedman's study of modern fitness culture is as illuminating as it is enthralling. She reveals the wild characters, political agendas and social movements that changed not only our exercise behaviours but our understanding of exercise itself. Behind every workout there is a story, and it's usually a good one." (Kelsey Miller, author of I’ll Be There for You: The One About Friends)
"A fascinating and complicated history, masterfully shared. Let's Get Physical made me grateful to the women of the past and hopeful about the future of fitness." (Kelly McGonigal, author of The Joy of Movement)
"There are few areas of American culture as complicated - and as understudied - as women's exercise. Which is why I feel like I've been waiting for a book like Let's Get Physical for decades: something that takes the history and importance of fitness seriously, but is also incisive and curious and fun." (Anne Helen Petersen, author of Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud: The Rise and Reign of the Unruly Woman)
