The Longevity Research We Can't Afford to Ignore

Real talk: hitting your daily steps is not having the effect on all-cause mortality that you want it to. I love that we're getting those step counts up, but I’m concerned that as we’ve been conditioned to chase duration, we're missing a crucial longevity lever: bursts of vigorous exercise.  Today: why this is a lever you can’t afford to ignore, mind-blowing new research on vigorous activity vs. light exercise, and how you can integrate vigorous activity into your weekly routine without adding minutes to your workouts. I know your to-do lists are already long, y’all.  Plus: I answer your questions on how to make training progress when you’re injured, and how to warm up and cool down effectively with limited workout time.
