In this episode of the Fit Physician Podcast, hosts Jake Wright and Dr. Suzanne Rutherford discuss the findings of a recent meta-analysis on daily step counts and their association with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. They break down the optimal number of steps for health benefits, debunk the myth of the 10,000-step goal, and provide practical tips for increasing daily activity. The conversation also addresses the limitations of the study and emphasizes the importance of small, sustainable changes in physical activity for overall health improvement.
