Summary

Dr Daniel Lieberman, a Harvard professor, talks us through why we’re over simplifying exercise in the modern world; why ‘just do it’ doesn’t work and why exercise really does matter. We look at how it’s connected to our mental and physical health, from coronavirus to depression; whether there is an optimal form or duration of exercise; how we’ve evolved – the biological and anthropological foundations of movement and whether sitting is the new smoking?   Book: Daniel Lieberman, Exercised Our app: IOS: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/deliciously-ella-app/id1445510165?mt=8 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.deliciouslyella.delella See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
