Walking Meetings and Glucose Uptake
The speakers discuss the benefits of walking meetings and the Moosey study, highlighting glucose uptake during exercise in people with diabetes. They emphasize the importance of practicing what they preach and how our bodies adapt when certain pathways are compromised.
Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor John Hawley from the Australian Catholic University on Exercise and type 2 diabetes. John is one of the most recognized names in exercise metabolism. He has published over 300 journal articles (Google scholar: 40,000 citations, H index 113). We discussed many things (see time stamps below).
