Lots of people hit the gym to shed unwanted pounds, but they don’t always see results on the scale.
Obesity expert Dr. Yoni Freedhoff, psychiatrist Dr. Gary Cooney, neuroscientist Prof. Wendy Suzuki, and urologist Dr. Stacey Kenfield tackle the power of exercise and why you should bother. Best quote of the podcast: 'We here at Science Vs we LOVE Cochrane reviews…we do Jazzercise to them!!'
