Is cardio bad for your knees? Does running destroy your joints? Will endurance training make you weak? In this episode of Metabolic Mastery, Dr. Marc Humbert and Dr. Cameron Garber tackle the most common endurance training myths circulating on social media and break down what the science actually says.

They explore why cardio gets such a bad rap, how incorrect dosing — not the activity itself — is responsible for most exercise-related injuries, and why the "cardio vs. strength training" debate is a false choice. The doctors also dig into how VO2 max is a powerful proxy for whole-body health, why your heart actually benefits from endurance training, and how individualized metabolic testing can help you finally exercise smarter, not just harder.

You Will Learn:

  • Why "overuse injury" is actually a misleading term — and what's really happening
  • How zone training prevents knee pain and accelerates recovery
  • Why VO2 max is one of the greatest predictors of longevity
  • The truth about cortisol, inflammation, and what exercise actually does long-term
  • Why endurance athletes live longer — and what the data says about strength-only athletes
  • How to dose exercise like a prescription to get results without burning out
