0:00.0	Welcome to the Get Fit Guys' quick and dirty tips to get moving and shape up. My name is Brock Armstrong, and I'm the Get Fit Guy.
0:10.2	In past episodes of the Get Fit Guy podcast, I've talked about how movement and exercise can have a direct effect on our mental health.
0:19.4	And my guest on today's episode is a bit of an expert in that
0:22.5	area, and I can't wait to hear what he has to share with us today. But first, a little bit of
