A lot of these people are untrained when they start, so they have a lot of room to improve.
And if you're somebody who regularly trains, you might not see that magnitude of an improvement, but I think it goes to show again that you can get these adaptations with exercise snacks if you don't have the time or don't wanna make the time to set aside
30 minutes a day to say exercise, you can really just get on the rower, get on your Peloton for 30, 45 seconds, do that five to 10 times throughout the day.
So that's kind of the idea behind exercise snacks.
You plan them, you set them out, they have a protocol to them.
That's a little makes them a little bit different than BILFA, but it's still sort of the same philosophy where you don't have to exercise for 30 to 45 minutes at a time.
It gets past the phrasing of, oh, I only have, I only did four minutes of exercise.
Well, yeah, it's only four minutes, but we need to stop thinking in terms of minutes and steps, I think, because it's, those are like outdated metrics.
Minutes are important, but what is the value of a minute of, a minute of different type figures or different intensity of exercise is different.
A minute is not a minute is not a minute.
So we need to just, I think, get past this idea of,
It was just like four minutes or it was just, you know, just I mean, it's just 10,000 steps because what 10,000 steps of how intense how what was, you know, we're going upstairs.
It's right.
Context is key there.
I mean, it's really... I would agree with that as well.
And I think if you just look at some of the newer... I mean, I think clearly, you know, there are people out there in public health who have more experience in public health than me in creating guidelines.
I'm obviously probably not qualified to make exercise guidelines.
But if you look at a lot of the data out there, I mean, we were talking about this in the drive here, it's...
They are obviously based in some evidence on health outcomes, but I think that they probably need an update.
