Have you been told that running is the best way to burn fat? Are you exercising too much and still not losing fat? Listen to this. In this episode, Mark Sisson breaks down the biggest mistakes people make with exercise, the power of metabolic flexibility (why what you eat matters more than workouts), and why walking is one of the most underrated tools for longevity, brain function, and creativity. We talk about what happens when you train your body to burn fat instead of sugar and how walking has saved my marriage (it’s the best tool for ANY relationship). Get ready to ditch the exhausting workouts, optimize your metabolism, and move in a way that actually supports your body!
