Sample Entry:
Maguire, J. (2001). Fit and flexible: The fitness industry, personal trainers and emotional service labor. Sociology of Sport Journal, 18(4), 379-402.
Using unstructured interviews with personal trainers, Maguire combined the sociological fields of work and consumption under the overarching study of physical culture. She found that personal trainers have a variety of explicit and implicit job roles, including representing the gym and fitness industry, fostering relationships with clients, being emotionally flexible, and cultivating an entrepreneurial spirit. Additionally, Maguire argued that the fitness industry caters first and foremost to identity projects, and consumerism, rather than the idealistic values of health and well-being. Success, then, relies on the deft interweaving of the various goods and services with customers’ identity projects. Much like Spielvogel’s (2002) examination of a Japanese fitness space, Maguire’s study provides a cogent example of the complexities of physical culture and how those intricacies can be understood by non-physiological methods. As Maguire noted, “the body is not a passive billboard for one’s inner self, but the medium through which one carries out and expresses the ongoing process of self-formation” (p. 398). Therefore, CrossFit could potentially be understood as an identity project for its participants. But what is the identity being sought and why? Is it elitism, as offered by CrossFit’s official motto to “forge elite fitness”? Is it a desire for hyper-masculinity or warrior ethos? Maguire’s study provides a basis for such questions, and offers a potential view of CrossFit as a mass reforming of the self.
