  The Longevity Research We Can't Afford to Ignore 15.09.2026 18мин

  Real talk: hitting your daily steps is not having the effect on all-cause mortality that you want it to. I love that we're getting those step counts up, but I’m concerned that as we’ve been conditioned to chase duration, we're missing a crucial longevity lever: bursts of vigorous exercise.  Today: why this is a lever you can’t afford to ignore, mind-blowing new research on vigorous activity vs. light exercise, and how you can integrate vigorous activity into your weekly routine without adding minutes to your workouts. I know your to-do lists are already long, y’all.  Plus: I answer your questions on how to make training progress when you’re injured, and how to warm up and cool down effectively with limited workout time. You know you can send a wellness question to me anytime: Call up our Project Swagger hotline and leave a message ☎️ 1-877-ALL SWAG Find the study we mentioned here. More from Dr. Rhonda Patrick here.
