He wanted to be performance physiology.

The army shows where he went.

Yeah, so it is epic data.

You're just looking at these big data sets and like find any of these associations of outcomes, which is a big reason for me is like.

I'm really big at again coming back to my objective athletic goals is because like I don't really care necessarily like how much you're doing is good.

The more you do, the more you move, the better you're probably gonna have net health benefits.

But I care about how are we objectively moving a parameter of fitness forward, right?

Can you do more work parameter of fitness or parameter of health outcome?

So I'm big on that if you improve your fitness for most people, right?

Obviously there's the caveat that athletes sometimes aren't the healthiest to get to where they need to be.

Yeah, but for most regular people, if you're improving a measure of fitness, you're probably indirectly improving a measure of health because the physiological adaptations that are required for you to become fitter are all the things that positively influence health.

So I think a lot of people obsess about like hand grip and VO2, because those are always like really heavily related because they're easy to test, right?

But if you can improve

Your five K time, or how much you can bike.

For 30 minutes, or whatever it is that you're trying to do.

And you can either go for longer, further, or cover more distance or more power output in a set amount of time.

I think those are a lot more easier objectives for a person to know that they actually got fitter and better.

Because in order to improve that, you had to improve your fat oxidation, improve your mitochondria, develop more muscle fibers.

Maybe you have more powerful type two muscle fibers, right?
