More Than Sweat
More Than Sweat is a natural extension of Brook Benten's 2024 book, "Sweat with Brook Benten." In both, Brook encourages movement and emboldens humans to go at hard things with gumption.
With every word of every episode and every page of the book, she guides her audience to a world of well-being where worth has nothing to do with a workout.
She encourages listeners to walk as they tune in to episodes. In season one, every episode is synchronized to music to guide a walking pace.
But the message is always more than sweat.
This podcast exists to guide growth.

More Than Sweat
Episode 9: ✌️ Things That Enhance Well-being (walk, strength, cardio at 130 BPM)
Spoiler alert: it’s do things that scare you and do things that delight you.
And we’ll do both in this episode.
You’ll be empowered to make scary things and delightful things a foundational part of who you are and what you do, not something you have to add to your daily checklist.
To do both something scary and something delightful in today’s More Than Sweat podcast, we’ll:
-Walk for 5-minutes at 130 steps-per-minute (about 4 miles per hour pace)
-Perform 5-minutes of challenging bodyweight exercises: 1-min each of burpees, planks, push-ups, squats, and lunges (modifications given on each)
-Walk for 5-minutes at 130 steps-per-minute (about 4 miles per hour pace)
-Perform 5-minutes of fun bodyweight exercises: 1-min each of skipping, galloping right, galloping left, “the pony,” and sagittal pony
20-minutes total workout.
