In today’s modern times of the Gen Z world, workouts, fitness challenges, and goals are misunderstood and dominate wellness conversations. According to them, intense workouts are the only way to get through a muscular body- but is the human body built to do so? However, the Harvard evolutionary biologist Dr. Daniel E. Lieberman recently debunks the modern fitness myths with the central idea that the human body evolved to chase energy but not peak performance. Physical workout is important, but overtraining in modern culture is not the only breakthrough to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Instead, he proposes a return to our biological roots of moderate movement, walking, and sustainability over high-intensity regimens.
