Beyond the Gym: Why Daily Movement Is Key We often think of health in terms of workouts: an hour at the gym, a run in the park, or a yoga class. But what if the real secret to longevity lies in what you do outside of those structured sessions? This is where NEAT comes in — Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis. In simple terms, NEAT is all the energy you burn during daily activities that aren’t formal exercise: walking, cooking, gardening, even fidgeting. And according to research, it may be just as — if not more — important than your workout. Why Sitting Is the New Smoking A sedentary lifestyle is one of the greatest threats to long-term health. Studies show that prolonged sitting is linked to higher risks of heart...

Why Your Fitness Needs Change After 40 What worked in your 20s and 30s doesn’t always work anymore. Back then, endless cardio might have kept you lean and energized. But after 35, your body begins to change, and without a shift in your approach, it gets harder to feel strong and balanced. From perimenopause and through menopause, hormonal fluctuations accelerate muscle loss (sarcopenia) and slow down metabolism. Relying on cardio alone can backfire: it often spikes cortisol, increases hunger, and delays recovery. To stay strong, protect your bones and joints, and keep your metabolism healthy after 40, it’s crucial to focus on strength training combined with daily walking. Building muscle becomes your greatest ally — not just for how you look, but for how you age. The Benefits of...

For years, I thought my DNA held all the cards when it came to how I’d age. But the more I've learned about epigenetics, it has become my tool to empower myself because it shows that lifestyle choices play a more important role than most people realize. Sure, our genes determine the blueprint but they do not determine how that blueprint will be expressed. That’s where epigenetics comes in and that’s where we have influence. What is Epigenetics? Epigenetics refers to changes in gene expression that do not modify DNA sequence. Instead, it’s like flipping switches on or off, telling your body which genes to activate, and which to quiet down. These switches can be influenced by lifestyle factors. So everything from nutrition and sleep to exercise, stress,...
