What Is The Minimum Effective Dose Of Walking?

Of course, we know that walking is linked to various enhancements in biomarkers such as blood pressure, heart rate, and cholesterol, along with improved mood.

What Is The Growth Kit?

I'm Brian Comly, a dad, husband, health and fitness enthusiast, and the founder of MindBodyDad.com.

I launched MindBodyDad in 2022 after realizing that I could combine my hobby of science-based self-experimentation and improvement with my love of teaching others. As a nerdy type who is always looking to find better solutions and improve upon different areas of my life, I realized that I could help way more than myself and my family as I dug through the science.  Since then I've written on a range of topics that pique my interest including the Zone 2 training, baby-led weaning,  seed oils, productivity strategies, baby reflexes, rucking, vision, behavior management strategies, sleep strategies, the benefits of weight lifting, takeaways from my favorite books, interviews with experts in a variety of fields, and lessons I've learned as an occupational therapist.  Each of these articles provide practical nuggets of information meant to help you grow.

Now, I'm bringing each of those articles to you with the help of a voice AI.  I created The Growth Kit podcast to continue providing practical strategies to improve your life, but now it’s coming through your ears instead of your eyes.
