#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

But you probably need to do, you know, 10 hours a week of it.

#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

And if that's what you want to do, I guess that that's fine.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

Yeah.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

So, yeah.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

Yeah, true.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

Not meaningless.

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

And I guess, like, again, what's your definition of meaningless?

FoundMyFitness
#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

You know, is it statistically?

#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

But there are, I mean, hundreds of studies on

#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

It's not unsustainable.

#108 The Best Type of Exercise for Longevity

I mean, you hear all these words, and it's just like, for the people doing the research, and even in graduate school, I was a part of several of these different studies where we used the Norwegian 4x4, and we were looking at the effect of on endothelial function, and we had people who were 65 years old with diabetes coming in, and they were doing...

a couple of these four by four protocols a week, 85% heart rate max, it's like, you can do it.
