The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommends moving more, sitting less and getting children as young as three to be active. The guidelines also stress that any amount and any type of activity improves health. As cold weather begins to settle it and days get shorter, it's often more difficult to be physically active. According to K-State Research and Extension northeast area family and consumer sciences specialist and state coordinator of Walk Kansas, Sharolyn Jackson, that's when we need to make a conscious decision to be physically active. Sound Living is a weekly public affairs program addressing issues related to families and consumers. It is hosted by Jeff Wichman.

Send us a textWhat if the key to a healthier, sharper brain wasn't a pill or a special diet—but simply getting up and moving your body every day? In this episode of the Strong By Design podcast, Coach Chris Wilson sits down with Dr. Charles Hillman, a world-renowned expert in cognitive neuroscience, exercise science, and neurocognitive kinesiology. Dr. Hillman has dedicated his career to understanding how physical activity affects brain function and cognitive performance, especially in children and older adults.Their conversation explores how movement shapes the brain across the lifespan, from childhood to old age. Dr. Hillman shares groundbreaking research—like how fit kids have larger hippocampal volumes and stronger memory skills, and how lifelong activity can help protect against age-related cognitive decline. He also discusses how a sedentary lifestyle can harm both physical and cognitive health, why schools need to prioritize physical education, and how parents can create movement-rich environments at home to support their kids' brain development. Dr. Hillman's work has even influenced U.S. public health policy through the 2018 Physical Activity Guidelines, showing that staying active isn't just good for the body—it's essential for brain health and lifelong learning.This is a powerful conversation for anyone who wants to stay sharp, feel energized, and keep their brain and body healthy for years to come.Time Stamps00:39 – Welcome to the Strong By Design podcast!01:24 – Join Coach Chris Wilson with special guest, Dr Charles Hillman04:34 – How Dr. Charles (Chuck) developed his fascination with the brain 12:30 – Coach Chris shares his passion for fitness and health14:25 – How early-life activities influence the way we age18:49 – What is the main reason many people don't exercise?22:08 – Learn about the health risks of being out of shape26:51 – Our lack of emphasis on physical activity and physical education31:26 – How other countries prioritize physical activity and health36:04 – How physical movement influences key areas of brain function40:45 – Chuck talks about sports and the study of movement49:14 – Can your body easily bounce back after years without exercise?54:50 – Benefits of being physically active as a family59:33 – Please share and leave ratings and reviews for the SBD podcast!We would be honored if you would leave a Rating or Review for the Strong By Design Podcast.Leave a Rating or Review on iTunes Resources:TEDx Talk - How lifelong movement supports your brain - Christopher Wilson Connect with Chuck:Northeastern University College of Science Connect with Chris:InstagramLow Testosterone?

Welcome to episode 158. [Introduce myself]. We are recording this episode right before Christmas but by the time you listen to this episode it will be 2024, so Happy New Year! It has been a busy time in our residency, we had lots of interviews, parties, and, of course, lots of learning and teaching. I apologize for our absence in the last few weeks, but we are back for good. We have Syed today, hi, Syed, please introduce yourself.Syed: Hi Dr. Arreaza, and hello everybody. My name is Syed. I am a fourth-year medical student at Ross University School of Medicine. I'm also a lifting enthusiast. One of my many goals in life is to look like I lift. Until I reach that goal, I will take solace in the fact that at least I sound like I lift. Arreaza: You are getting there, keep going! Give us an intro for today's episode. Syed: (laughs) Thanks! Well, today, I want to present a framework with which to approach resistance training. The benefits of weight training are well-known, and a quick Google search gives us plenty to learn about them. But a clear framework for resistance training is a bit more difficult to come by. So, in this podcast, I will attempt to provide you, the listeners, with such a framework. By the end of the episode, my goal is to get most of you to start thinking about strength training seriously. Arreaza: I'm excited to hear it. I'm ready to learn more. I exercise, but I have to confess that I need to add more lifting to my routines. I enjoy cardio exercise, especially if I'm listening to my favorite music or watching a Netflix show. So, today I will go to bed being a little wiser. I have low gym literacy, but I think many of our listeners will appreciate my silly questions. Syed: (laughs) If you're thinking it, it's not a silly question, Dr. Arreaza! Before we begin though, some housekeeping. Because there is some technical stuff like names of muscles, their function, and exercises to target them, we will add a quick glossary at the end of the attached transcript. I will also include sources for the information I present. As well, a lot of other sources on hypertrophy training and exercise science. Arreaza: So, let's start with the definition of strength training, Syed. Syed: Yeah. So put simply, any exercise where you produce force against a resistance can be thought of as a resistance training exercise. Doing this kind of exercise over a long period of time is what causes strength and muscle gain. By the way, strength and muscle gains are like chicken and eggs. Scientists are not sure which comes first, just that both are correlated. Practically, it means that when we look at two people, the person with bigger muscles is probably going to be stronger.Arreaza: On the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, available online at health.gov, we find that it is recommended that adults engage in “muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or greater intensity… [involving] all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week,” and that's ON TOP of the 150-300 minutes of moderate physical activity a week for general health benefits.Syed: Yeah, and we are talking about it today because a lot of times it's unclear to people what such exercise entails. Some common examples are bodyweight exercises like push-ups, pull-ups, and squats. Syed: In these exercises, our body is the resistance against which our muscles are producing force. So, in push-ups, it is our chest and triceps that are mostly involved. In pull-ups, it is our back and biceps that work the hardest. When it comes to squats, it is our quads and glutes that are used most. Quads are the muscles in the front part of the thighs, and glutes are the buttock muscles. Arreaza: Push-ups, pull-ups, and squats are examples of bodyweight exercises. Syed: Yeah, so now let's talk about free weight exercises. Just like in body weight exercises, we are using our body weight as resistance, in free weight exercises we use free weights, like barbells or dumbbells, as resistance. So, instead of a push-up, we could do a bench press with a barbell or dumbbell, for example. Arreaza: Barbells and dumbbells. What's the difference?Syed: The difference is the size, dumbbells fit in your hand and barbells are larger. Bench press with them is a substitute for push-ups. These would target the chest and triceps just like push-ups. For pull-ups, the substitute would be barbell rows or dumbbell rows, to target the upper back. And the free-weight version of bodyweight squats is simply having a barbell on the upper back/shoulders and do squats. This exercise is called barbell squat. If we don't have barbells but have dumbbells, we can grab one, hold it with both hands in front of our chest, and do squats. That is called a goblet squat.Arreaza: And don't forget the kettlebells that can be used for squats too.Syed: That's right. So far in our discussion, some themes have emerged. There are big muscle groups that work together, like the back and biceps, chest and triceps, and quads and glutes.There are exercise groups that target these muscle groups.These big muscle groups are either part of the trunk or are nearest to the trunk of the bodyMost people know what trunk is, but I'll describe it as the area between the neck and groin. You can imagine our limbs and neck sprouting from our trunk just as branches sprout from a tree trunk.So, chest is part of the trunk, and biceps are near the trunk; back is part of the trunk, and triceps are near the trunk. For our lower body, quads and glutes are near the trunk.Now, let's also summarize the muscle groups and exercise groups mentioned so far. Chest and triceps: Can be targeted with push-ups, bench press (when using barbells), or dumbbell press (when using dumbbells).By the way, in the world of lifting, the same exercise might have different names. I don't want anyone to be married to the names. Understanding the movement pattern is the important thing.So, again, reiterate #1Back and biceps can be targeted with pull-ups, barbell rows, or dumbbell rows. There is also an exercise called lat pull-down that is like the movement pattern of pull-ups (basically starting with arms above our body and then bringing our elbows towards the ribs). But a lat-pull down uses a cable machine found at most gyms.So again, for back and biceps, we can do pull-ups, barbell or dumbbell rows, or lat pull-downs, depending on what we have access to.Finally, we talked about quads that can be targeted with body weight squats, barbell, or dumbbell squats. To these exercises, we can also add lunges, that can be done with bodyweight, dumbbells, or barbells.Arreaza: What are lunges?Syed: Lunges are like walking but you lower your hips and bend your knees with every step. And you do this with dumbbells in hands or a barbell on the back. You can also do it with just body weight. Arreaza: You said these muscle and exercise groups cover the big muscles on or nearest to the trunk. You have not mentioned the shoulders and the back of the thighs. Syed: To that, I would say, thank you for listening so closely! All of these exercises have been compound movements, meaning they target more than one muscle group. These are the exercises that give you the biggest bang for your buck, that is time.Syed: The compound exercises for back of the thigh is deadlifts. Muscles in the back of the thigh are called hams (short for hamstrings). The bread-and-butter compound exercise for hams is the deadlift. It can be done with a barbell or dumbbells. On top of targeting your hams, it also makes your erector muscles work hard. Erectors are also called erector spinae. These are a group of muscles in the back that work hard to keep your spine stable and help us stand straight. They also allow us to bend our spine side to side and even backwards a bit. So the deadlift is done with the lifter bending at the hips and knees, keeping the back straight. And reversing that movement to stand back up.Arreaza: It is important to exercise your erectors. Deadlifts for your hams. And for your shoulders?Syed: For shoulders, the go-to compound lift is the shoulder press (and again, this can be done with a barbell or dumbbell). It targets your delts, short for deltoids. Shoulder press also targets our triceps, traps, and upper chest. Syed: The thing with both deadlifts and shoulder press is that they are taxing on your spine. It's true for squats too, but squats are a relatively simple movement compared to deadlifts and shoulder press. With deadlifts and shoulder press, you have to pay special attention to keeping a neutral spine, and that does not come intuitively. Often the best way to master these movements without putting your spine in a compromised position is under expert supervision, at least when learning the movement. Don't get me wrong; it can be learned by paying close attention to exercise videos online as well. But yeah, it takes practice.Arreaza: So we have covered all big muscles groups that can be trained together using compound movements: back and biceps; chest and triceps; hams, erectors, and glutes; quads and glutes. Syed: Yes, glutes and abs are freebies. They get worked in a lot of movements. More directly in some exercises and less in others. So, these muscle groups really don't need extra attention in most cases, at least not at the beginner level. So, now we know the muscle groups and the compound exercises to target these muscle groups. The final piece is how much and how often to train them. The recommended frequency, in general, for strength training is two days or more per week. Syed: How many exercises in a session? Generally, 3-5. Syed: How many sets for each exercise? The standard answer is 2-5 sets of 5-15 reps per exercise. Stopping 2-3 reps shy of failure (this is called the reps-in-reserve or RIR model). Make sure to take plenty of rest between sets. Arreaza: How much is plenty? Syed: 1) your muscles feel sufficiently recovered, 2) your breathing is back to normal or almost normal, and 3) your will to push for another set is back. You can use this 3-point checklist for both rest periods between sets and rest periods between training sessions. Between sets, the rest time may be 2 minutes; it may be 5 minutes. It may go from 5 to 2 minutes as your cardio improves over time. But the most important thing is, listening to our body. Not overexerting. Otherwise, our subconscious is going to tell us, you just punish me when exercising. So, now it is going to rebel. And before we know it, weeks have passed between training sessions, we have lost the momentum for training, and we missed out on potential gains. Arreaza: My patients talk about being afraid of injuries when lifting. Can you talk about that? Syed: Anything in life has risks and benefits. I heard a resident at Rio Bravo once say, “being alive has its risks.” The good news is, resistance training of any kind, whether it is Olympic lifting, powerlifting, or bodybuilding, carries a lot less risk of injury compared to any other sport. And the benefits, physical, mental, and reduced all-cause mortality far outweigh the risks. I have never regretted a training session. This is something you will hear most people who lift say. And for good reason. The only thing is, start slowly, and increase weights slowly over time. Arreaza: Injury prevention is important. You need to make sure you are keeping a correct posture and body positioning during weight-lifting. A personal trainer can be a way to prevent injuries but if you are very motivated, you can find videos to guide you. Do you have any recommendations on sources where our listeners can learn more about this?Syed: To learn about the principles of muscle hypertrophy, the people I benefited the most from are Dr. Eric Helms, Dr. Mike Israetel, Dr. Milo Wolf, and Barbell Medicine (Drs. Baraki and Feigenbaum whose articles I referred to when preparing for this podcast). All these people have tons of sources available in the forms of books, articles, YouTube videos, and Instagram posts. In other words, they are everywhere trying to teach us!. I can link some of the playlists for exercises by muscle groups.Arreaza: Thanks.Syed: Thank you for listening, I hope this episode gives us a better idea to guide our patients or ourselves in strength training. GlossaryCompound exercise A strength training exercise that involves the use of multiple muscle groups and joints to perform the movement. Chest Pecs or pectoralis muscles (major and minor)The pecs work to help us push things away in front of us. Compound exercises targeting chest also work the front delts. Triceps Tris (pronounced “tries”)The triceps help us straighten our arms.Chest and tris can be thought of as pushing muscles. ShouldersDelts or deltoids (front, medial, and rear) The delts raise arms up to around shoulder level, although some evidence suggests they work even when the arm has crossed the 90-100 degree mark. Back Lats or latissimus dorsi helps us bring elbow close to our body (either from in front of us in a horizontal plane or from above us in a vertical plane). Most back exercises also work other muscles in the back like rear delts, traps, and erectors.GlutesGluteal muscles (gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus)Have many functions including pelvic stability, overall posture, force production in athletic movements, and so much more. Involved heavily in exercises for the quads and hams. AbsCore or Abdominal muscles (rectus abdominis, internal and external obliques, and transverse abdominis)A group of muscles in the front of the torso. When body fat is low (10-15% in men and 15-25% in women), they lead to the appearance of the “six packs” (the rectus abdominis). They are used in most exercises when we brace before executing the movements. Note: In most cases, being leaner than the percentages mentioned above is not good for overall hormonal health. _____________________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 158, “Strength Training Principles.” Future Dr. Hasan explained how to strengthen groups of muscles by adding bodyweight and free weight exercises. He answered some questions about basic terminology and Dr. Arreaza added a few words about injury prevention. This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Syed Hasan.

If you're sedentary and begin to exercise, you get a dose-dependent decrease in mortality, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, coronary disease, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, falls and more People who are doing the highest volume of vigorous exercise start losing longevity benefits. If you're doing full distance triathlons when you're in your 40s and 50s, your risk of atrial fibrillation increases by 500% to 800% In the case of moderate exercise — loosely defined as exercising to the point where you're slightly winded but can still carry on a conversation — there's clear evidence that more IS better and cannot be overdone Every 1,000 steps you get on average per day reduces your mortality by 10% to 15%. Benefits plateau around 12,000 steps (6 miles) a day Strength training adds another 19% reduction in all-cause mortality on top of the 45% reduction that you get from one hour of moderate exercise per day. However, benefits cease once you go beyond one hour per week. The sweet spot is 20 to 40 minutes of strength training, two to three times a week. Above 60 minutes per week, the benefits of strength training are nullified, and you're worse off than if you did no resistance training at all.Regular moderate exercise is highly beneficial for overall health and longevity, while excessive vigorous exercise may have detrimental effects. Key Points: Sedentary individuals who start exercising experience significant health improvements, including reduced risk of mortality, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, coronary disease, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and falls. Engaging in extreme levels of vigorous exercise, such as full-distance triathlons, can increase the risk of atrial fibrillation by 500% to 800%. Moderate exercise, defined as exercising to the point of being slightly winded but able to maintain a conversation, consistently demonstrates dose-dependent benefits. Every 1,000 steps taken daily reduces mortality by 10% to 15%, with benefits plateauing around 12,000 steps (6 miles) per day. Strength training complements moderate exercise, offering an additional 19% reduction in all-cause mortality. The optimal duration is 20 to 40 minutes per session, two to three times a week. Exceeding one hour of strength training per week nullifies the benefits and may even increase health risks.

Professor Peter T Katzmarzyk Audio podcast of satellite event of the ProPASS consortium-ISPAH partnership: “Towards the 1st device-based guidelines of physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep ISPAH Congress 2022 on the 23rd - 26th of October 2022. Over 90% of the evidence used for guidelines development is based on questionnaires. In the last decade there has been a large increase in device-based cohorts that will likely inform the next generation of guidelines. Compared to questionnaires, devices such as accelerometers capture very different aspects of physical activity, posture and sleep. The symposium's sessions will discuss the strengths and complexities encountered during the transition of future guidelines from questionnaire-based to accelerometer-measured evidence, and will highlight the instrumental role that ProPASS and other analogous consortia can play in enabling a smooth transition towards device-based and truly global physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep guidelines. Speakers: Professor Fiona Bull (World Health Organization) Professor Ulf Ekelund (Norwegian School of Sport Sciences & ProPASS) Associate Professor Karen Milton (ISPAH & University of East Anglia) Professor Jasper Schipperijn (ISPAH & University of Southern Denmark) Dr Matthew Ahmadi (University of Sydney & ProPASS) Dr Jo Blodgett (University College London & ProPASS) Professor Emmanuel Stamatakis (University of Sydney & ProPASS) Professor Peter Katzmarzyk (Louisiana State University)
Chelsea and Sophie discuss four foundations of health and wellness. In this episode, they speak about sleep, hydration, timing of eating, and the weekly government workout/movement suggestions. As Chelsea and Sophie state no one will have these done perfectly, as we know everything ebbs and flows. Although, they are important to keep in mind when wanting to live a well rounded life of self care and wellness! Chelsea and Sophie are here to help guide you on your journey. Food for thought → How are you with our foundations of wellness? Is there one you focus on more than the others or are you pretty even?

The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
How Therapists Can Manage a Sedentary Job: An interview with Celina Caovan, DPT Curt and Katie interview Celina Caovan about physical self-care for therapists. We talk about how to mitigate the impacts of a sedentary job as well as the benefits of physical therapy and consistent physical activity. We also look into what physical therapy is, how clients can advocate for it, and how therapists might collaborate to support the physical and mental health of their patients. Transcripts for this episode will be available at mtsgpodcast.com!

In this podcast episode, we talk about how therapists can take care of their bodies while working in a sedentary job Many therapist friends of ours have described low back pain and challenges in maintaining physical health when much of the work we do is while sitting. What should therapists know about physical activity and physical therapy? “Physical therapists are trained movement experts… we can diagnose, we can treat using hands on skills, patient education, and then we prescribe individual exercise for a bunch of different injuries, the ultimate goal being to improve the way someone moves and emphasize injury prevention. And the cool thing about physical therapy: it can be an alternative to pain medication, in a society where they prescribe a lot of a lot of pain medication, and then surgery as well.” – Celina Caovan, DPT There are a number of subspecialties in physical therapy to support all different elements of improving movement The importance of moving outside of a sedentary job US Department of Health guidelines on activity levels What can therapists do to take care of themselves during the work week? Getting out of the chair, some chair exercises Stretching and gentle movements during the breaks between sessions No drastic differences in activity from the work week to the weekend (i.e., avoid weekend warrior behavior, especially when extremely sedentary during the week_ Slowly increase activity and gradually increase cardio or resistance training Stretching (static and dynamic), warming up, and cooling down How can therapists think about physical therapy for their clients? “Someone's physical and mental health – that's interconnected… that mind body connection. And I think this would be a really great opportunity for us to create this interdisciplinary relationship where we can approach it from a physical and mental standpoint.” – Celina Caovan, DPT Referrals and direct access to physical therapy Psychoeducation and support for advocacy to obtain physical therapy Chiropractors versus physical therapists How physical and mental health therapists can collaborate to support patients Our Generous Sponsor for this episode of the Modern Therapist's Survival Guide: Thrizer Thrizer is a new modern billing platform for therapists that was built on the belief that therapy should be accessible AND clinicians should earn what they are worth.

In this episode Ariel talks about clearing self-sabotage to reap the benefits of one of the most amazing ways to help us prevent stress, anxiety, depression and frustration: The power of exercise. Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, Second Edition: https://health.gov/sites/default/files/2019-09/Physical_Activity_Guidelines_2nd_edition.pdf KEY TAKEAWAYS Today, about half of American adults – around 117 million people – have one or more preventable, chronic diseases. Seven of the 10 most common chronic diseases are favourably influenced by regular physical activity, yet nearly 80% of adults are not meeting the key guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity, while only half meet the key guidelines for aerobic physical activity. Nobody's perfect, but you should know what the recommendations are: Adults should do at least 2.5-5 hours a week of moderate intensity exercise, or an hour and 15 minutes-2 hours of aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous intensity aerobic activity. Preferably, you should spread that throughout the week. Muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or greater intensity, that involve all major muscle groups, should also be done on 2 or more days a week. Kids and teens should get 60 minute a day of mild to vigorous activity. The choices we make are often not conscious, so while we think we don't have enough time to exercise, we might actually have a belief that if we take the time to exercise we won't have the time to do something else. Or that other people's needs matter more than our own, or we might our appearance now and we might be embarrassed to be in front of other people working out. Patterns of self-sabotage and procrastination come up more around exercise than around any other goal that people have. Some people have really high expectations like radically changing their appearance. Radical weight-loss, for example, is not necessarily a good thing. You need to maintain the changes that you get over a long period of time rather than yo-yo between sudden weight loss and gain, it's not good for your metabolism. Maintain consistent slow changes over time. BEST MOMENTS “Lack of physical activity is linked to approximately $117 billion in annual healthcare costs and about 10% of premature mortality.” “Exercise has so many benefits: Lowering cortisol levels (stress hormones), improving quality sleep, elevating your mood, enhancing mental clarity, improving a sense of confidence, opening your range of motion and flexibility and improved self-esteem/self-confidence, experiencing a community with other people that exercise as well and a feeling of openness and greater possibilities.” “Why aren't people working out more?” “You can't force yourself to work out with negative judgement. But laughing at certain embarrassments we have can help us shift into a different headspace so we can continue on.” ABOUT THE HOST Ariel is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master, Empath and Psychic who has been involved in holistic healing since 1988.

Episode 95: Exercise Medicine. Exercise can be used as medicine if given at the right dose and frequency. Sapna and Danish explain some principles of exercise medicine. [Add brief summary for posting on website]Introduction: Is the monkeypox a hoax? By Hector Arreaza, MD. Today is May 27, 2022. Before we dig into exercise, I want to share some information about a trending topic.I remember my lectures on public health in medical school in the late 90s when my teachers taught me about the tremendous accomplishment of humanity in eradicating smallpox. The last natural outbreak of smallpox in the United States occurred in 1949, and the last case of smallpox was recorded in Somalia (Africa) in 1977. Until it was wiped out, smallpox had plagued humanity for at least 3000 years, killing 300 million people in the 20th century alone, but the World Health Organization declared smallpox eradicated in 1980. No cases of natural smallpox have happened ever since, and if you discovered a case of smallpox, I was told by my teachers, you would be awarded one million dollars by the WHO. I did my research online and I could not confirm that information, but I learned that the variola virus (smallpox virus) is kept only in two locations in the planet: the CDC in Atlanta, Georgia, United States and the VECTOR Institute in Koltsovo, Russia. Why am I talking about smallpox? Because the monkeypox is a new trending topic in the media. Now as the COVID-19 panorama starts to look somehow comforting, monkeypox is starting to gain more attention in the media. Even the name “monkeypox” sounds terrifying. The CDC issued a health alert on May 20, 2022, about the most recent confirmed case of monkeypox in the United States, but this is not the first case of monkeypox in the US. In 2021 there were two travel-associated cases, and in 2003 there was an outbreak of 47 cases associated with imported small mammals. Cases of monkeypox have been identified in several non-endemic countries since early May 2022; many of the cases have involved men who have sex with men (MSM) without a history of travel to an endemic country. Cases of monkeypox outside of Western and Central Africa are extremely rare, and we hope they continue to be rare. Is monkeypox a hoax? Is it real? Only time will tell. For now, let's be optimistic and hope for a world free of dangerous pandemics. Whether monkeypox will continue to spread or not is still unknown.

By Danish Khalid, MS4, and Sapna Patel, MS4, Ross University School of MedicineToday is May 12, 2022. D: Welcome back to our Nutrition Series! Thank you for joining us again! Nutrition is such a big part of medicine, it's the answer to many chronic diseases and yet it's the most neglected subject in medicine. Our goal here is to educate not only ourselves but our patients and bring awareness of this discrepancy we've created in medicine. S: If you're new to this series, I suggest you pause this and listen to the first few episodes as we build upon them each time. In our previous episode, we discussed how the term “diet” brings upon a negative connotation as well as explored various popular meal plans. A: Exercise prescription. FITTE (Obesity Medicine Association): Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type, Enjoyment. D: As healthcare professionals, time and time again we advise our patients “diet and exercise,” because that's what we were taught and research has backed for many years. It's so easily said, yet the words carry such weight. But what does that really mean? Well, that's what we're here to explore. At least the latter part, exercise. S: extra fries? D:Or shall I say, “physical activity?” Again, just like the word “diet,” “exercise” has similar negative connotations. Thus, let's avoid saying “exercise” and resort to words such as “physical activity or workout.” Disclaimer: What we discuss here today is focused directly towards those who are beginners. For those of you who are more experienced, this may benefit as a reminder of the foundations. A: Screen your patients. 95% of patients will benefit from exercise, and most do not need a special test. Only 5% of your patients may require additional testing. S: So what is the best workout for me, you, or our listeners? Well, as simple as that sounds, it's not that simple. Especially nowadays, where information is at the tips of our fingers, it is so easy to get confused on how to start. But let's start by establishing your fitness goals. Do you want to lose fat, gain muscle, or gain muscle while losing fat? S: Once you've figured that out, then it's all about small steps and achievable goals. Oftentimes, individuals start their journey to healthy living with unrealistic goals, hoping to achieve them within a few weeks or months when in actuality it takes longer. This often leads to falling off or reverting back to their unhealthy habits. But small tricks such as reducing the amount of sedentary behavior can do wonders. With technology ruling over our lives, we've adapted to this sedentary lifestyle, became comfortable and left physical activity behind. In fact, the National Center of Health Statistics found that only 26% of men, 19% of women, and 20% of adolescents meet sufficient activity levels. D: So the first step: Move more, sit less. And for those with a busy lifestyle, some physical activity is better than none. According to the Physical Activity Guidelines published by the US Department of Health and Human Services, for substantial health benefits, adults should do: At least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) to 300 minutes (5 hours) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity.Or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) to 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity. And muscle-strength training of moderate or greater intensity that involved all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week. S: How many of you understood that? What does this all mean? Let's break it down. The amount of time for exercise is self-explanatory, but what does moderate or vigorous intensity aerobic physical activity mean? Putting it in simple terms, aerobic physical activity means “cardio”. The level of intensity varies based on the activity you perform. Moderate-intensity activities include a brisk walk or walking on the treadmill at 2.5 to 4mph, playing double tennis, or raking the yard. Whereas, vigorous or high-intensity activities include jogging, running, carrying heavy groceries or objects upstairs, shoveling snow, or participating in a strenuous fitness class. You may have heard of the terms of: low-intensity steady state (LISS) cardio and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) cardio. A: In general, if you're doing moderate-intensity activity, you can talk but not sing during the activity. Vigorous-intensity activity, you will not be able to say more than a few words without pausing for a breath. D: So what's the best cardio routine? LISS or HIIT? Well, there's a lot of potential options. In terms of the best form of cardio for fat burning, there's one thing you need to prioritize, that is preventing muscle loss. This enables your physique to dramatically improve as you lose weight. S: Ok, give us the evidence. D: One study claimed that HIIT cardio workouts should be included due to its potential muscle sparing properties. HITT training can be done in a fraction of a time as LISS and is a great cardio workout to burn fat. Furthermore, the study recommended performing lower body cardio workouts, rating bicycling as the most effective method of HIIT. However, HIIT is very demanding on the body as it may cause potential muscle recovery issues, which is why you should also combine it with a few LISS sessions per week as well. And one of the best methods of LISS include doing the stairmaster at 2.5 speed to 4. Furthermore, those looking for a fat burning effect should aim for an effective heart rate level during cardio. To keep it simple, those performing HIIT should aim to keep the heart rate 140-160 beats per minute and for LISS should aim for 110-130 beats per minute, keeping your heart rate elevated will optimize fat-burning effects from cardio. S: When should you perform cardio? What's the best time? Well, studies have shown that the best time to perform cardio sessions should be when you're not strength training or right after. It was found that participants who performed cardio before strength training experienced greater muscle loss than those who performed it after, or when not strength training. And while we're on this topic, let's address a myth regarding cardio: Sweating more does not equal more calories burnt. Each individual has a temperature setpoint for sweating. Once you meet that body temperature limit, you start to sweat as your body's way of cooling down. For example, those from the midwest or east coast deal with a colder climate. Their setpoint is lower than those on the west coast or where the climate is hotter year-round. Thus, these people sweat more than others and easier. D: How about those whose goals are to gain muscle? Is it the same or different? Don't worry we haven't forgotten about you guys. Although, going on a jog, or run, or riding a bike, is an effective way to help you burn some additional calories, and help you get into that hypocaloric state. It doesn't allow you to build lean muscle tissue to achieve the desired physique many of us want. The only way to obtain that is by incorporating strength training into your regular exercise regimen. This is why the guideline, as mentioned earlier, recommends strength training in addition to cardio, notice the “AND”. Yes, I'm talking about hitting the weight on a regular basis. S: Show me some more evidence. D: Multiple studies have compared diet alone versus diet + weight training and diet + weight lifting + cardio after. And every single time, those with weight training wins out, especially if it's the muscular physique you are looking to build. Now, don't overlook this subtle difference that all exercises are created equal, because it's not. Well, what training split should I follow then? Does it matter? The total body split, or push pull legs, or the “bro split”? You see, oftentimes people get confused as to which to choose, and that confusion can lead to no choice at all. Do whichever you like, but just make sure you're doing this, and here's the key: progressive overload. Adding more weight to allow more strength to build from workout to workout, or phase to phase. Or increasing metabolic overload or demand by keeping the rest time shorter and getting more work accomplished from workout to workout. Whatever strategy you choose, as long as you are striving to push yourself to a higher level of fitness and strength. That's going to do the job. A: Use PT to assist you to design a good physical activity plan, depending on disability or limitations of movements. S: Yup I agree, personally I choose to increase each set by at least 10-15lbs, and rest for 30 secs to 1 mins since my goal is to increase my strength and endurance. You know what I've noticed, Danish? A lot of women refused to lift weights. They want to get fit and toned, but they don't want to look “bulky”. So, they skip the weights, and perform hours of cardio, or worse - they avoid exercising all together. A common misconception about heavy weight training, especially among women, is that lifting heavy weight will lead to a bulky looking physique. It's true that lifting heavy will promote hypertrophy in muscles leading to a size increase. However, the idea that it leads to a “bulky” look is untrue. The true culprit that leads to bulky physiques is fat accumulation. Excessive body fat is what causes both men and women to look bulky. The most important aspect of someone's physique is his or her body fat percentage. A good physique nearly always requires a fairly low body fat percentage to achieve. Lifting heavy can help accomplish this. D: What about the hormones? S: Testosterone, or the lack thereof, is one of the main reasons that women won't get bulky from lifting weights. Testosterone is a natural anabolic steroid, which directly stimulates muscle growth. And, on average, women only have one seventh the amount of testosterone as men. So, as usual, that means women have to work harder. But it also means you don't really need to worry about bulking up. Heavy weight training has a plethora of benefits that can help develop muscle, shed fat, increase metabolism and ultimately lead to anyone's desired physique. D:Another question that gets asked a lot: which workouts will help me lose my belly fat? Should I do a lot more abdominal workouts? Although there's so much more to this question. The simple answer: None. You cannot specifically target belly fat. Your body has its own way of allocating fat distribution, different areas in men and women. Similarly, when you lose fat, you'll oftentimes notice different areas losing more fat first. Don't get discouraged and be patient. As the results will come. One advise, take weekly pictures for comparison. It is said and accepted by many that it takes 4 weeks for you to see your body change, 8 weeks for friends and family to notice, and 12 weeks for the rest of the world. So keep grinding. And last but not least, it's important that we reiterate: physical activity only supports and aids your eating lifestyle. It will not combat a poor eating lifestyle. Proper eating habits are 80% (relative number). So keep your eating habits in check. S:Well, that's all we've got for today.

All jokes aside you have to set somewhat of a plan What do we mean? I am going to work out during their mid-day nap. Or My child always does really well with alone playtime in the mid-morning and that is when I can capitalize on my workout time frame. Many times parents will default to doing all of the other things we have to do as parents when there is downtime, but there is always time to do those things that take realistically less energy and we should be prioritizing things like working out during those down times.

The Physical Activity Guidelines For Americans: 2 hours and 30 mins to 5 Hours of moderate-intensity Aerobic Exercise a week Or 1 hour and 15 mins to 2 hours and 30 mins of vigorous-intensity Aerobic Exercise a week And 2 days a week of muscle-strengthening activities a week Now when most of you read this you are going to think. That is not that much. That is the point we are looking at a minimum effective dose for substantial health benefits. Now argumentatively I think it should be higher but, looking at the baseline guideline that everyone should be hitting makes it easier to lay out a plan.
