🚨 Fall MasterclassĀ Cohort – Doors Close Sept 11
Register: ⁠⁠Individuals⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Coaches
We’re talking about the profound impact of exercise on our overall health, extending beyond mere weight loss and muscle gain.
We explore the science behind myokines, the molecules released by contracting muscles, and their role in promoting well-being across various organs, including the brain and heart.
We also discuss the CDC's exercise guidelines and the nuanced idea of 'exercise as medicine,' weighing the potential benefits and limitations of this concept.
