Re: A possibly odd question:

i'm with the other anon. the male-coded image of fitness tends to be very show-y – muscles, sweat, combined with a push-yourself-to-the-edge mentality, in front of the imagery of mountains that were hand-chiseled first and climbed second. it's very cycle-every-road, swim-through-the-entire-ocean.

the female-coded answer is more inner-peace, yoga-yourself-to-joy style. do some cardio, maybe some aerobics, your body is a temple and heaven forbid any of the people we're showing here actually have visible muscle definition bc 'that's not feminine', according to some.

while i'm personally totally on team yoga (which makes me sweaty af, thank you very much, pictures that never show that part), i can definitely see how the male imagery, body and all, can be much more motivating to some, particularly if you like pushing it (again, not like the pushing doesn't happen in, say, yoga, but it's definitely less advertised in the imagery you're getting). pictures of fit women tend to be very... idealised, and i'm not sure they're always showing fit women or just... pretty skinny women. because my skinny ass has definitely been called 'fit' before and people regularly get shocked when five minutes of any sport brutally murder me.
