I Can See Your Underwear: My Journey Through the Fitness World
The fitness industry tells you how to look. This book tells you how it actually works.
When Amanda Sterczyk traded her corporate suit for spandex at age 40, she expected to find a world of wellness and empowerment. Instead, she found herself teaching classes in freezing community centers, navigating the "hustle culture" of social media, and realizing that the business of fitness is often anything but healthy.
From the literal wardrobe malfunctions that inspired the title to the exhaustion of being a "solopreneur," I Can See Your Underwear is a refreshingly honest look at the fitness world from the inside out. With humor and heart, Sterczyk explores the gap between the polished "fitspo" images we see online and the messy, sweaty reality of running a small business.
Whether you’re a fitness professional, an aspiring entrepreneur, or someone tired of the "bikini body" hype, this book offers:
Part business memoir, part manifesto for a kinder approach to movement, this is the book the fitness industry didn't see coming.
