Season 46, Episode 550: Guest: Adam Geiger: Keeping Up with Fitness

"Our brains are wired to seek pleasure and avoid pain, but sometimes the things that bring us the most pleasure in the short-term can have negative consequences in the long-term." - Andrew Huberman



Metabolic interventionist for ABC Paving, advisor, and trainer Adam Geiger is on the program today and we are talking about fitness, getting in shape, and all things related to good health.  Adam and Jay are unpacking the importance of knowing yourself and who you are before beginning a fitness journey, the intimidation factor that can arise when people are unsure about fitness or how the body works, and making sure that you listen to and play by the rules your body is giving you.  It's time to get in shape and we're happy to follow the lead of the one and only Adam Geiger.
