It's important to understand and to stress that what this study is saying or what the study is reinforcing is that 150 minutes a week is the floor.
That is not the ceiling.
Yep.
And it's a big study, and a lot of it is in sync with other smaller studies, and there's ways this study could be even better.
And I don't think because of this, public health agencies should start saying, everyone needs 10 hours a week.
That would absolutely backfire.
Yeah, people would just say, I'm never going to get that, so I won't even try.
Oh, my God, because 10 hours a week is just way, way too much.
That's like talking to a new skeptic and going right for their heart in terms of like, God doesn't exist.
You know, like, whoa, whoa, take it easy, slow down.
You know, you got to teach them, you know, the skeptical mindset before you jump down their throat with that.
If you could do more, great, you know, but...
Yeah, right.
If I put it in a sentence, it would be 150 minutes is a meaningful minimum, but the benefit curve does not stop there.
All right.
Thanks, Bob.
Yeah, but nowhere near what we have seen in the past 10 or 15 years.
No, it won't.
Oh, no.
It's pretty regular.
