The Movement Prescription
Promising to transform your understanding and approach towards physical activity in primary care, The Movement Prescription podcast is a treasure trove of insights. The Royal College of GP's Lifestyle and Physical Activity Champions, Dr Hussain Al-Zubaidi, Dr Callum Leese and Dr Suzy Scarlett, are here to paint a picture that moves away from rigorous exercises and lays focus on the importance of re-introducing movement into our daily lives.
We have a line-up of exceptional guests offering their unique expertise. Listen to Russell Kane, the renowned comedian, and an advocate for lifestyle medicine, and Michele Zanini from the Italian Olympic triathlon team, share their insights on how physical activity can revolutionize health. Learn from Dr Emma Lunan and Dr Charlotte Marriott as they delve into managing long-term conditions and mental health with physical activity. We'll also explore the concept of green prescribing and the art of motivational interviewing with Dr Hamish Reid. So, tune in, subscribe for updates and join the conversation with the hashtag #activepractice on social media. Let's embark on a journey where small changes will lead to big things.
This podcast is brought to you in collaboration with the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.

Get on Your Bike and Ride with Mark Beaumont and Angus Rodney
Are you ready to get on your bike and ride? Tune in to our latest podcast featuring cycling legend Mark Beaumont (redefining what is possible on two wheels), and Angus Rodney from Love 2 Ride (the home of cycling encouragement) which we hope will have you dusting off your cycling gear to rediscover the childhood mischief to be had on two wheels.
A refreshingly practical conversation with no shortage of inspirational stories and plenty of information to help anyone who may wish to get into cycling. We discuss a variety of barriers and how different groups and organisations are leading the change and overcoming many of these.
Are you already a cyclist? Are you able to incorporate this into your working days from time to time? Does your practice encourage staff and/or patients to cycle? What are your own barriers? We’d love to know your thoughts after tuning into this episode.
‘Young and old we can all ride further’ (from Mark’s podcast series Endurance, which is well worth a listen).
