Cardio or aerobic exercise encompasses many types of activities. Some activities like walking can be done at a moderate pace. Other activities, like running, biking uphill, jumping rope, or swimming laps, can be done at a more intense pace.

 

Today we are joined by Author, Podcast Host, Professional Speedgolfer, Masters High Jumper, and former Professional Triathlete Brad Kearns to talk about how you can maximize your workouts for greater results. He also shares the pros and cons of cardio sessions and how to do it right.

 

Brad Kearns has written twenty books on diet, health, peak performance, and ancestral living and is a popular speaker, retreat host, and face of the Primal Blueprint online multimedia educational courses. In 2017, The Keto Reset Diet became a New York Times bestseller and briefly ranked as the #1 overall bestselling book on amazon.com.

 

Brad hosts the B.rad podcast, covering healthy living, peak performance, and personal growth with his carefree style and lively sense of humor. Brad promotes a nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle transformation program he calls the “MOFO Mission,” designed to optimize male hormone function in order to maintain passion and competitive intensity throughout life.

 

His signature morning regimen is a challenging flexibility/mobility/core and leg strengthening routine, followed by a cold plunge in Lake Tahoe to build focus, discipline, and a natural hormonal boost.
