Bite Size: The Exercise Formula Was Never Designed for Women | Dr Paul Batman
About this episode
Dr. Paul Batman discusses how traditional exercise guidelines fail to account for women's unique health needs.
Women achieve the same cardiovascular health benefits as men at roughly half the exercise volume. Yet the standard exercise guidelines prescribe identical amounts for both. Dr Paul Batman argues this is one example of a deeper problem: a fitness model built on incomplete data, applied to populations it was never designed to reach. Only 16 percent of people follow the conventional guidelines. The question is not how to motivate the other 84 percent to do more. It is whether we are asking them to do the right thing at all.
