Re-Engineer Your Day: Simple Ways To Enhance And Extend Your Healthspan With Jim Walter, PhD In Exercise Physiology

Healthspan isn’t just built in the gym — it’s shaped by the choices you make all day long. Cardiovascular exercise physiologist Dr. Jim Walter shares how his father’s early passing drove his mission to help people extend their healthspan through simple, science-backed daily movements. He explains why the “150 minutes per week” guideline often discourages beginners, introduces his “Move More” approach for adding activity into ordinary tasks, and reveals research showing how even 2,000 extra steps or standing breaks can reduce disease risk and improve brain health. This empowering conversation reframes movement as the most accessible medicine for living longer and better.
