You have a particular interest in exercise.
You do try and help people get fit.
Can you talk about that?
Because it's quite unusual for a professor of public health.
Where, you know, as a physician, I see people who there's this metaphor of people sort of floating down in the river and you haul them out and and resuscitate them.
And you never have time to go upstream and work out who's pushed them in the river.
Why?
Why are they in there in the first place?
Why am I?
So you're you're experiencing this as a as a PT, the sort of the sharp end of of the difficulty of people getting fit.
And also you're experiencing who isn't in your fitness class, I'm guessing.
Yeah, no, I love it.
So if the audience here today or the people listening on the radio are thinking, look, but I go to the gym, I exercise or I'd like to do that or I can do that.
Well, that's great.
And that's something you should do.
And there is a role of going, yeah, we encourage you to do it.
There's great evidence.
But if you have been sedentary all day, rather than beating yourself up and going, I'm a terrible person, I'm so lazy, I don't want to exercise.
Look at these other people out there jogging and doing stuff.
You may think what forces in the world, what structures have prevented me getting out of my chair?
