You’ll also learn: The difference between steady-state cardio and HIIT—and when to use each How cardio supports your heart, brain, bones, and longevity Why strength training enhances your cardio results How to adjust workouts for autoimmune conditions, fatigue, or chronic stress Practical ways to fit movement into real life without burnout This episode shifts cardio from something you have to do to something that actually works for you—supporting your energy, mental clarity, and overall well-being.
