252 Chantal Lalonde: How much exercise do adults need? Unpacking physical activity guidelines


Listen Later

Today we welcome Chantal Lalonde for a conversation about exercise in general. So many people fall into the trap of hyper specialized exercise, correcting movement patterns or setting lofty unattainable goals. In this episode we unpack the physical activity guidelines and how to focus on more consistency and less on doing things perfectly all the time. 

Learn about the balance of cardiovascular exercise and strength training that are recommended for all adults. Chantal and Kathryn also talk about fitness trackers, mindset around training, and what it's like to be very average, but highly passionate athletes.

Chantal is a passionate and innovative public health professional with over 15 years of experience in health promotion, physical activity and chronic disease and injury prevention. She holds a B.Sc. Human Kinetics, B.Ed., and a Master of Health Studies.  She currently work as a program manager at a local public health agency overseeing the chronic disease prevention and wellbeing, injury prevention, and health equity programs.
