Excerpt from a Ben Greenfield YouTube video offering practical fitness habits: favor consistent, moderate daily exercise ("micro-doses" of running ~2–4 miles per day) over infrequent long, intense sessions; perform full-body weight sessions a few times per week rather than short-term intensive protocols; and maintain daily practices that allow sweating, deep breathing, and regular elimination for overall health.
Tell people, hey, if you're gonna run, don't go do some, you know, marathon, beat down three hour session on the weekend and not run the rest of the week. Like little micro doses of, you know, two to four miles each day is good. You know, hit the weights for a full body session a few times a week instead of just, you know, you know, despairingly in January, starting a 30 day intensive weight training protocol similar to detoxifications, just basically living your life in a, in a manner in which your body every day gets a chance to sweat, breathe, you know, urinate past bowels effectively, etc.
