Patients sometimes ask if I "have to" run marathons to recommend weight loss meds. I don't. I run because I love it — and because it keeps me honest about how hard behavior change is.
Exercise isn't primarily for calorie burn
Yes, activity helps — but the bigger wins are insulin sensitivity, mood, sleep quality, and bone density. Those support every other intervention we prescribe.
You don't need my hobby
If running isn't your thing, find something rhythmic: brisk walking, cycling, dance, swimming. The best exercise is the one you'll repeat.
Community multiplies adherence
That's the thesis behind Running with Precision. Accountability isn't shame — it's showing up because someone expects you.
