In this episode of Core Conversations, host Robbie Harmon sits down with nutritionist Tanna Fox to explore the power of movement as medicine. They discuss how daily exercise impacts physical health, mental clarity, and even aging. The conversation highlights practical strategies for starting small, building sustainable habits, and inspiring families and communities through example rather than pressure.

The episode emphasizes that movement doesn’t have to mean long gym sessions—simple actions like walking after dinner, sprinting occasionally, or strength training a few minutes a day can create profound improvements in metabolism, mental well-being, and resilience.

Key Themes & Takeaways

Movement Is Medicine

• Exercise benefits everything from wrinkles, gut health, glucose, and mental health to longevity
• Strength training is described as the “fountain of youth.”
  

Start Simple, Build Momentum

• Don’t get paralyzed by finding the perfect plan—just start moving
• Even 1–5 minutes can make a difference
  .

Strength Training & Functional Fitness

• Lifting weights and muscle fatigue are key for growth and anti-aging
• Functional movements (groceries, sitting/standing, pull-ups) prepare us for real-life needs
  

Movement for the Mind

• Exercise releases BDNF, which sharpens brain function and reduces brain fog
• Movement builds stress resilience and balances cortisol
  

Family & Community Modeling

• Kids learn more from example than nagging
• Movement modeled by parents can ripple across generations
  .

Everyday Habits That Matter

• Post-dinner walks help regulate glucose and prevent fat storage
• Managing energy (not just time) helps people fit exercise into daily life
