In this episode, James and Robby continue their discussion regarding the connection between ignorance and fitness.

In philosophy there is a very antagonistic relationship to ignorance. Philosophy (and science) are attempts in many ways eradicate as much ignorance as possible for as many people as possible

Different philosophical takes on ignorance include

-The unexamined life is not worth living (Socrates)

-Neither is the examined one (MacIntyre-in response to Socrates)

-Better to be Socrates unsatisfied than an (ignorant) pig satisfied (Mill)

-“Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.” - Charles Darwin

But when it comes to fitness one has to ask what role ignorance should or should not play in it?

James and Robby ask and attempt to answer the following questions.

Does one need to have special knowledge (e.g., exercise science) to engage in fitness practices?

Can someone legitimately claim ignorance today about the factors that lead to optimal health and fitness today?

How does the claim that the unexamined life is not worth living apply to the life of fitness in particular?

How can/should ignorance be combatted in the modern world when it comes to fitness and health?

What responsibility do we have as fitness individuals to educate ourselves (eliminate ignorance) about proper fitness and health practices when those things are no longer our birthright?
