Exercise is one of the single best things you can do to rejuvenate your body at the cellular level—but what is the most effective way to do it? In this episode, Michael explores how short bursts of movement can trigger remarkable cellular restoration.
Michael speaks with Associate Professor Matt Robinson from Oregon State University, whose research shows that just a few minutes of high-intensity exercise can rejuvenate you from the inside out by restoring your mitochondria, the powerhouses of your cells. Discover how high-intensity training benefits every part of your body—from your muscles and heart to your brain and skin. Plus, meet 88-year-old healthy aging expert Dr. Norman Lazarus, who picked up exercise in his fifties and now cycles 100km a week.

• Associate Professor Matt Robinson – Kinesiology Program, Oregon State University
