Start Treating Movement As A Lifestyle | Ben Reuter

Start Treating Movement As A Lifestyle | Ben Reuter

EPISODE 174 – Ben Reuter, PhD, is an exercise physiologist teaching at a regional university. He believes movement should be treated as a lifestyle…not just an activity because movement is part of what makes life complete. The idea for the Moving2Live podcast came from his interest in listening to long form movement related podcasts that were directed either towards professionals or the general public. In the episode, Ben shares why you should think about movement as a lifestyle (rather than an activity), tips for figuring out the best movement type and duration for YOU, how to still move when it’s freezing/rainy/snowy…and more!

QUESTIONS I ASK BEN IN THE EPISODE:

  • Why is it important for people to move regularly? Do you purposely use the term “move” rather than “exercise”?
  • Why should we look at movement as a lifestyle?
  • How much movement is enough?
  • What is the best type of movement to do? (Cardio? Strength training? Endurance exercises?)
  • How do you advise that someone get started?
  • How can you make time to move?
  • What about when you’re traveling or when it’s snowy (and freezing!) outside?
