Having strong feet is one of the most important parts of having a strong body. When your feet are strong, all of the other areas of your body have the opportunity to feel and function better.

But, while we have spent a lot of time talking about the feet on our podcast, there are a couple viewpoints we have on the view that are particularly controversial, especially compared to what most alleged "foot experts" have to say.

On this week's episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are breaking down what these viewpoints are, why we believe them to be 100% true, and what you can do to start gleaning the benefits of these viewpoints.

If you have been taking advice from others on what to do about your feet and feet issues but don't seem to be making any progress, listen up!

This discussion will spell out exactly what you need to know.

Are you working out consistently but find that your body keeps feeling achier and more beat up?

If exercise is supposed to leave us feeling healthier and stronger, why does it often seem to have the opposite effect?

Truth be told, there are two distinct types of exercise, and if you are only doing one of them, the results can take a compounding toll on your body.

However, once you start to implement the other type of exercise, all of that can quickly change.

On this week's episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are discussing what these two types of exercise are, what the difference is between them, and how to know if you are doing one versus the other.

If you want to use your workouts to set you up for living a long life in a body that feels healthy and strong, listen up!

What we share in the conversation is a huge piece of the puzzle to doing exactly that.
