BITESIZE | The Surprising Truth About Ex...

Dr Rangan Chatterjee: GP & Author
About this episode

It's easy to believe that we have to dedicate lots of time and energy to exercise. That, unless we're pushing ourselves to our limits, it's not worth doing. But my guest this week disagrees - as do I.


Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.


Today’s clip is from episode 404 of the podcast with medical doctor and neuroscientist, Dr Tommy Wood.


Like myself, Tommy is passionate about empowering you to take control of your health by simplifying the wealth of existing information and giving you practical, realistic recommendations.


In this clip he shares his current perspective on movement and why you don’t need to exercise for hours to gain benefits for your body and your brain.
