The Magic Pill: A new 21-day podcast challenge

Exercise — do you think of it as a chore, or love the feeling? Our partners over at WBUR are launching a new podcast to inspire people to move more by changing the way we think about it. “A daily dose of get-up-and-go” is the mantra of the The Magic Pill, a 21-day challenge that kicks off on September 1.

Co-hosted by Eddie Phillips, the director of the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine at Harvard Medical School, the podcast is all about shifting our mindsets when comes to exercise and getting active. It’s not about telling you what you should or shouldn’t do — instead, the goal is to inspire listeners to get excited about moving more and to do what you can.

Each day, you can tune in to hear about the science behind exercising, helpful tips, and stories from both athletes and people who’ve never run a mile. Check out the pilot episode for a preview!

Before the challenge starts, head over to the forum and tell us how you feel about getting active: Do you love it? Dread it? And if you do it, what motivates you and how do you work it into your lifestyle?
