I love it so much because it really...
It really shows that your body doesn't care if it's structured exercise or not.
It just wants the movement.

And I was talking to someone yesterday about this who, you know, is interested in health and wants to be healthy, but like hates exercise.
And their response was 30%.
Thank God.
Like, the running with my dog that I'll, like, do in bursts or, like, with my kid, like, counts.
And I think that's important because it's not that we're disincentivizing people to not engage in structured exercise.
We're rewarding people who do this unstructured exercise.
And we're saying, keep doing it.
It matters.
It adds up.

I was probably less of a snob than you because you're an endurance athlete, but I was somewhat of a snob thinking like, no, you have to like, you have to have structured time and like, you know, get your heart rate up and really like dedicate time to this.

even at first, I was kind of like, well, how is it, you know, okay, let's say 10, 10 minutes a day, you're doing that every day.
