Why do we exercise? Is it just about aesthetics, or is there something deeper? After 24 years of exploring fitness spanning powerlifting, Muay Thai, climbing, and even Qi Gong - I've realized it’s about more than muscles.

Exercise connects us to our bodies, gives us mental clarity, and keeps us functional in a modern, sedentary world.

In this episode, I’ll dive into the history of exercise, its shift from a functional necessity to gym-based routines, and why it’s often marketed as an obligation.

I’ll question what exercise actually is, how to balance aesthetics with health, and why variety, like moving in different planes, is the key to longevity.

Whether you’re lifting weights, walking on a treadmill during calls, or just playing with your kids, movement should enable your life, not the other way around. I’ll explore how to rediscover movement in its most natural, fulfilling form.
