Send us a textWhat if I told you that physical activity is not just a vanity pursuit but a vital necessity? Get ready to have your perspectives shifted in today's episode as we dive into the shocking statistics about physical inactivity and its ties to chronic diseases. As an experienced exercise physiologist, I, Rob Maxwell, will bring to light the gravity of the situation, emphasizing that, at times, even our primary care physicians and medical students fail to achieve the recommended activity levels. Having seen the firsthand experiences of fellow medical professionals, it's time to shed light on the surprising role physicians play in promoting physical activity. It's intriguing how those physicians who lead an active lifestyle themselves are more likely to advocate physical activity to their patients. I will challenge you to take a hard look at your own fitness habits and the essentiality to clock that recommended 150 minutes of moderate activity per week. So strap in and join me on this journey of understanding the critical role of physical activity, not just for our physique but our overall health too.
