274. Walking as Medicine: The Three Movement Pillars That Will Increase Your Fitness, Reduce Body Fat and Set You Up for Optimal Healthspan
Does your walk keep you within your "fat max" heart rate zone? We wrap up our conversation with Brad Kearns today, talking about optimizing our walks and two other movement pillars that will round out fitness, especially if we’re in midlife and beyond. We talk about how to keep an open and inquisitive mind in an effort to age healthfully, and I’ll share how I’m testing out some new approaches and how you might, too! Plus, we’ll get some laughs in – sometimes you just gotta laugh! LET’S TALK THE WALK! ***NEW*** Facebook Group for Our Community! Join here for support, motivation and fun!
