With high rates of chronic disease, mental health and less physical activity exacerbated by COVID lockdowns, exercise physiology is the focus of our latest podcast. Accredited exercise physiologist, Ben Southam and Dr. Damian Kristoff discuss opportunities to include exercise physiology in a collaborative care model for our patients.

Ben and Damian bust the perception that exercise physiologists are all about squats and lunges, and discuss the complimentary nature of exercise physiology, how each consultation is tailored to meet the clients needs and the differences between a physical activity prescription and an exercise prescription.

Ben and Damian discuss the supportive role of exercise physiology in helping to lower risk factors for disease in addition to the increasing demand for exercise physiologists to provide long term support for both rehabilitation and performance enhancing movement. Ben also provides us with timely insights on the safest way to return to exercise following a COVID diagnosis.
