In this episode of Talking Healthspan, we delve into the science of mitochondrial health and how exercise can power up these cellular engines. Learn how aerobic and resistance exercises each uniquely contribute to keeping your mitochondria healthy and why that matters for aging well. We discuss findings from recent studies, showing how exercise improves mitochondrial efficiency, promotes the growth of new mitochondria, and helps clear out old, dysfunctional ones.

Key Topics Covered:

• Aerobic vs. Resistance Exercise: How each type of exercise benefits mitochondrial health—biogenesis vs. quality improvement.
• Molecular Mechanisms: The role of key proteins like PGC-1α and AMPK in mitochondrial adaptation to exercise.
• Systemic  ...
