But before we get there...

Let's they're going to talk a little bit more about the insane difference between vigorous physical activity and light physical activity.

I mean, it's it's so crazy to think about the difference between those that the time efficiency is like you just you can't you can't ignore.

You can't ignore how efficient vigorous physical activity is.

Wait, just pause for a minute.

One minute of vigorous physical activity.

So let's, you know, let's just listen to this.

An hour, equivalent to an hour of like gentle walking.

Yeah, I agree.

I mean, I think I was reading in the paper that, you know, for light physical activity, it was capped at like 15%.

You got like a 15% reduction in, you know, cardiovascular related mortality and some of these things.

But like, you know, it just, it didn't go beyond that.

Even if you did hours and hours and hours, that's like, that's what you were capped at or like 10% for cancer, something like that.

So it's like, again, you're just like, you know,

You just you could for hours be doing light physical activity and you're only going to get that like 10 percent cap.

Whereas with the vigorous intensity physical activity there was.

But like before I get to that, I do want to I did forget to mention the risk of hypersensitivity.

having a heart attack or having a stroke, so these are these adverse events you were talking about with vigorous intensity physical activity, for every one minute of that vigorous activity, you needed about 5.4 minutes of moderate intensity activity.

So again, you know,

heart attacks, strokes, like those are major events that you want to avoid.
