Prof. Doug Richards

Job Titles:
  • Associate Professor
  • Physician
  • Professor
Richards is a clinical sport physician and biomechanist best known, perhaps, as a former team doctor of the Toronto Raptors. Back in the 1970s, when he was in medical school, the public understanding of health was largely a mechanistic one. The human body was a machine with a mind riding on top of it, removed and imperious. What happened from the neck down stayed from the neck down. We've since learned that mind and body are so intimately connected it makes more sense to think of them as a single entity. In conversation with Richards, a casual mention of the difficulty of squeezing in 10,000 steps in a day prompts him to note that the health benefits, especially for older women, appear to max out at 7,500 steps a day. Getting off the couch at all is what brings the biggest health improvement, he says. "The more active you become, the less return on investment there is. But it's extremely important to do at least a little bit of activity." Doug is a wonderful mentor and friend. Having one's maximal oxygen consumption (Vo2max) in the 99.9th percentile of one's age group reduces all-cause mortality by about 90 per cent, greatly increasing longevity. High-intensity interval (HIIT) training or 4x4 training helps. Now add sauna.
