Why Exercise Isn't Medicine

This week we dive into a statement that sparked a surprisingly big discussion: "Exercise is medicine."Inspired by a paper Michelle came across, we explore whether this popular phrase is actually helpful or whether it oversimplifies something far more complex.We discuss why exercise can improve health outcomes across countless conditions, but also why comparing it to medicine might miss the social, psychological, cultural, and practical realities that influence movement and behaviour.As always, expect plenty of tangents, a few rants, some questionable humour, and honest conversation about what it really means to help people move more.Is exercise medicine? Is it something more? Or have we been framing the conversation all wrong?Tune in and let us know what you think.
