Welcome back to our Sunday bonus episode. This is where I share an extra article with you from one of

the other podcasts in our network. Today's episode is coming from Optimal Health Daily, which covers

nutrition, fitness, dieting, and a lot more. You can find that show wherever you're listening to this.

And the host, Dr. Neal, actually answers a listener's question every

Friday. If you send one in and you're in the U.S., you can get a copy of our hardcover optimal

living daily workbook totally free, shipped right to your door. All you have to do is send in a relevant

health-related question to health at olddpodcast.com, and then listen in on

Fridays to hear the Q&A episodes. If you're outside the U.S., we'll email you a digital

version of the workbook. So again, to send in a health-related question to be answered on the

optimal health daily podcast, just email your question to health at olddpodcast.com.

And with that, here's Dr. Neal with an article and his commentary as we optimize your life.

lurking, just waiting to be unleashed. If only we could burn fat from the areas that are covering

up this willowy ballerina, she will be revealed, like one of Michelangelo's sculptures

freed from the marble. So we chase down extremely specific workout moves that will change the parts

of ourselves that we like the least. We Google, quote, exercises two-tone, insert, saddlebags, inner

thighs, pooch, love handles, or your problem area of choice.
