What’s the easiest way to make your life better in every way?

Exercise regularly.

You’ll have more energy and mental focus, you’ll sleep better and get sick less frequently, and, of course, let’s not forget the fat loss and muscle and strength gains, either.

Most people know they should be more active, but don’t know exactly what to do and how to go about it and often choose to do nothing instead.

Unfortunately, the professionals who are in the best position to offer a helping hand here—doctors—are often just as clueless as their patients when it comes to effective exercise and nutrition.

Why is that? And what can be done about it?

Those are two of the questions I explore with Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum in this episode.

If you’re not familiar with Jordan, he’s an elite powerlifter, strength coach, medical doctor, and the founder of Barbell Medicine, so he has a unique perspective on the failings of medical school in preparing doctors to offer pragmatic exercise advice to patients. In our conversation, we discuss:

- Why Jordan unironically refers to barbell training as “medicine”
- Major “blindspots” in medical school curricula
- The problem with the “health at any size” movement
- Red flags for supplement companies and Instagram influencers
- And more . . .
