Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor Pope Moseley from Arizona State University in the United States. Pope has a lung and critical care background. We spoke about his early heat shock protein work with Carl Gisolfi, a giant of research on exercise and the gut. Also heat, heat shock proteins, gut leak and heat stroke, exercise training and gut leak, heat shock proteins and autophagy, “Heat shock proteins are how cells think”, heat related illness is only a fraction of disease driven by heat. After a serious acute back injury requiring back surgery, Pope found Kettlebells to be very useful (we discussed the person who introduced kettlebells to the west, Pavel Tsatsouline).

Inside Exercise brings to you the who's who of research in exercise metabolism, exercise physiology and exercise’s effects on health. With scientific rigor, these researchers discuss popular exercise topics while providing practical strategies for all.

The interviewer, Emeritus Professor Glenn McConell, has an international research profile following 30 years of Exercise Metabolism research experience while at The University of Melbourne, Ball State University, Monash University, the University of Copenhagen and Victoria University.

He has published over 120 peer reviewed journal articles and recently edited an Exercise Metabolism eBook written by world experts on 17 different topics (https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-94305-9).
