A prominent feature of any modern society is the notion of punishment or retribution for any wrongdoing.

Whether it's jail, fines, public humiliation and ostracism punishment is a central feature of certain aspects of modern society.

In this episode James and Robby ask and attempt to answer the following question with respect to punishment and fitness:

-What is punishment?

-Why do we punish someone after the act has already been committed?

-What makes punishment justified or unjustified?

-What relationship does punishment have to fitness and what relationship should it have?

-How have sports and the idea of "no pain, no gain" how we think about punishment and its relationship to fitness?

-What can we do to help fitness individuals realize they don't need to punish themselves with fitness by saying things like "If I eat pizza, I need to do a workout to burn it off"
