Beauty in philosophy is considered one of the ultimately values like justice, truth, knowledge, and goodness.

One of the central goals of most people in engaging in fitness is to look better, or to cultivate physical beauty.

In this episode James and Robby ask and give their answer the following questions

What makes beauty worth pursuing?

Is beauty just "appearance" that hides a deeper "reality"

Is beauty in the eye of the beholder (subjective) or out there in the world? (objective)

How does the modern fitness industry influence standards of beauty?

How closely are physical fitness, evolution and natural beauty tied to one another?

Can obsessive pursuit of (external) beauty via extreme forms of fitness make us (internally) ugly?
