EP 264: Bitesize Biohack: Harnessing the Power of Micro Movements for Optimal Energy and Brain Health

Micro movements throughout the day can enhance blood flow, aids recovery, builds energy and concentration levels, and improves brain health.

Description

Micro movements throughout the day can enhance blood flow, aids recovery, builds energy and concentration levels, and improves brain health. In this bitesize biohack episode, Angela presents a piece of her conversation with Dr Michael Mosley, who explains the science behind micro movements, why squats are so good, and the importance of stairs (both down and up)

Key Takeaways

The squat and press-up, because they are vertical movements, provide huge surges of blood to the brain which trigger a substance that acts like fertiliser.
Many underestimate the impact that resistance training will have, not just while performing it, but also at rest. It can improve factors such as insulin sensitivity as well as general wellbeing.

Best Moments

'This is like fertiliser for your brain cells'

'It's easier to get results in an unconditioned individual that someone who is already conditioned'
