Do We Need Institution? - Ep. #3

October 20, 2015

Do we need the traditional institution or has the individual surmounted this need through social media? Perhaps competing in the conventional institutional sense (through fitness and/or powerlifting organizations) is no longer necessary now that we have gained an understanding of our relative skill through Instagram, Facebook, and the like. Still, institutions may provide an important base for helping the individual get started at the outset of self-actualization. But when is it time to break from the institution's rule? How do you stop yourself from falling into the trap of institutionally defined success? Listen as Ben, Ryan, and Jacob discuss the role of institution in the fitness industry and everyday life.
