structured exercise and then they just did VILPA.

So the non-exercisers benefited that.

And like you said, similar to people who exercise, which is kind of a crazy finding.

And it's interesting because reading all these studies and in the past few years is something that I definitely had changed my mind on in that I used to think, if you're not going to the gym for 30 to 40 minutes, and obviously it depends on the goal you're training for.

If you're training for a competition or something, you need to do a dedicated training session.

And if you're not doing 30 to 45, it's kind of a waste of time.

But now it just seems that even if it's less than 10 minutes, and they even removed it from the physical activity guidelines, the guidelines used to say 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous or 150 to 300 minutes of moderate.

#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

It's not even in there anymore.

You can do it in whatever length bout you want to, obviously probably a minute, maybe minimum, but to four minutes is great.

And so it's something that I've changed my mind on personally in regards to if I'm talking to people about how they should do activity, it's no longer, it needs to be 30 minutes or more.

Like you said, your body, it really doesn't care.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

It's not your body doesn't have a watch or a clock where it's measuring your physical activity.

It kind of just knows like how much you're doing over the day and the stimulus that it's that it's getting for sure.
