This week on Shake the Ground, Nathalie is joined by Seán Kinane, founder of Health Matters, where he has spent years helping everyone from elite athletes to everyday people better understand their bodies.In this episode, Seán breaks down the science behind health and fitness in a way that actually makes sense. From why VO₂ max has become one of the biggest predictors of long-term health, to whether Zone 2 training deserves all the hype, he challenges many of the fitness trends and misconceptions we see online every day. Together, they explore why getting fitter isn’t just about looking better, the biggest mistakes people make with their training, how to know if you’re actually improving, and why the numbers on your watch don’t always tell the full story. Whether you’re a runner chasing a PB, someone trying to improve your health, or simply curious about what your body is capable of, this conversation is packed with practical advice that could change the way you train & think about fitness.
