He provides fascinating insights into exactly what is happening to our brains when we go jogging, lift weights, swim laps, or take a walk, as well as what happens when we don\u2019t.   He\u2019ll also answer questions we all have about exercise vs diet to lose weight and perhaps, most importantly, how much exercise is enough.   For more information, transcripts, and all episodes, please visit https:\/\/thisisyourbrain.com   For more about Weill Cornell Medicine Neurological Surgery, please visit https:\/\/neurosurgery.weillcornell.org   ","author_name":"This Is Your Brain With Dr. Phil Stieg","author_url":"https:\/\/thisisyourbrain.com","html":"
