"We only get one mind and one body—movement keeps them both alive."
Why do we exercise?
For 99% of human history, movement wasn’t optional—it was survival. In this episode, Matt dives deep into why our modern world has stripped movement from daily life, the difference between exercise and a movement mindset, and the incredible benefits that come from simply moving your body every day. From boosting brain chemistry and reducing chronic disease risk to improving mood, longevity, and everyday function, you’ll see why movement is one of the most powerful tools for a healthier, happier life. Whether it’s a walk, a swim, or yard work—find ways to move, and keep the machine running.
Key topics:
-How our ancestors naturally burned thousands of calories a day
-The mental health benefits of movement (and the risks of not moving)
-Why exercise is a practice, but movement is a lifestyle
-How even 15 minutes of daily activity can add years to your life
