Exercise: Love it or Loathe it

Exercise isn’t just burning calories — it’s a fascinating biological process that challenges your muscles, heart, and metabolism at every level. In this episode, we explore how your body generates energy, the difference between aerobic and anaerobic effort, and why muscles get stronger when stressed. We also unpack VO₂ max, lactate threshold, and the “afterburn” effect, showing how different types of exercise remodel your physiology. Whether you’re a casual walker, weekend warrior, or dedicated lifter, this episode reveals the science behind every move you make.
