The next edition of the “MTSU On the Record” radio program examines the psychological roadblocks that prevent us from becoming physically fit.
Host Gina Logue’s interview with Dr. Mark Anshel, a professor of exercise science, will air from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 24, and from 8 to 8:30 a.m. Sunday, March 2, on WMOT-FM (89.5 and ww.wmot.org).
Anshel is the author of “Applied Health Fitness Psychology,” a college-level textbook with suggested activities designed to help students make the connection between theory and practice.
“We are probably the most self-destructive culture in the world,” Anshel said. “You might say, ‘Well, aren’t they starving overseas?’ Well, many countries, yes, they are starving. But they don’t have a choice. They don’t have what we have in the way of food and nutrition and hospitalization and medical facilities, etc.”
