Fall prevention, vitality, and longevity with Dr. Jacques MoraMarco and Dr. Yun Kim

Author: Allan Misner March 24, 2026 Duration: 40:47

On episode 739 of the 40 Plus Fitness Podcast, Coach Allan is joined by Dr. Jacques Mora-Marco and Dr. Yun Kim, authors of the book, Walking Your Way to Vitality.

Together, they dive deep into how integrating walking, breathwork, and mindfulness can profoundly transform your health; especially if you're over 40.

In this conversation, you'll discover that walking is far more than just putting one foot in front of the other. The doctors share fascinating insights into different styles of walking, such as "retro walking" (walking backwards), animal-inspired Tai Chi walks for balance and fall prevention, and the powerful benefits of starting simple, daily habits no matter where you're at right now in your fitness journey.

You'll learn practical tips for making walking a cornerstone of your wellbeing, how mindfulness and movement can reduce stress and boost longevity, and why prevention is truly the best medicine. Whether you're a seasoned walker or just starting out, this episode is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and actionable strategies to help you move toward your healthiest, happiest self.
