Right, well, I think also high intensity interval training, when you're doing, you know, there's a lot of work on, so we're talking about
How exercise can improve metabolic health.
And I think it is a really important lever to pull here because you're activating these glute four transporters.
And it does that, like that activation happens through lactate, the generation of lactate, which is happening when you're really pushing yourself hard.
Yeah.
And so at that point, you know, you're becoming insulin sensitive too, right?
You are.
So you're really kind of changing the scenario in some ways.
I don't personally think it should give people the justification to go and eat tons of pizzas and, you know, ice cream and all that stuff.
You know, cheating once in a while is fine.
But, like, I think that you can't โ you definitely can't โ
out you can out eat exercise in other words so you can't out exercise bed right exactly you can't exercise bad diet but i do think exercise is extremely important especially like there's different types of exercises that that was kind of another question you know the strength training versus like really going hard or or the long endurance training right so high intensity interval training you can kind of get away with doing less time but you're going really hard right you're pushing that and i am unapologetically an advocate of that
Yeah.
And that's where like if you're
In the context of aerobic training, I think that's also like there's a spectrum, right?
Like, well, what were they doing?
Were they able to talk?
You know, if they're really going hard.
Right.
You know, it really, it does make a difference with respect to your, how you're pushing that lever for, you know, insulin sensitivity and your glute transporters and them sort of translocating up to the muscle and opening the floodgates.
