Ep 058 - Weekend Warrior Exercise

This episode is dedicated to all the Weekend Warriors out there, who Can only fit exercise into 2 days of the week. How does this affect your health and is it a good idea? Dante brings two studies looking into all of the details!

But first, we look at a couple things in the news that are of particular interest to our female listeners: We discuss what brain changes take place during menstrual cycles and we also discuss the breast cancer screening age recommendation coming down from 50 to 40.
