#082 The Science of Vigorous Exercise — Should We Train Hard or Train Long? | Martin Gibala, Ph.D. | FoundMyFitness

This podcast delves into the realm of vigorous exercise, emphasizing the benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) for physical and cognitive health. It explores varying exercise intensities, from continuous training to short bursts of vigorous activity, and discusses their impact on VO2 max, mitochondrial biogenesis, glucose transport, and muscle composition. The podcast also highlights the significance of exercise intensity for non-athletes and promotes a "vigorous intermittent lifestyle" for improved health outcomes.
