I mean...

you know, there's ways that you can do these sort of exercise snacks, whether it's the interval walking or a little bit of step above that, and you're doing maybe some chair squats.

I mean, I have my 70-year-old mom who isn't in greatest health.

You know, she's doing CrossFit two to three times a week for, it's a senior's class.

But I mean, she's doing things like chair squats and she's doing, you know, she's doing lifts and stuff with very light weights.

And, you know, there's a...

progressive way to like get this is definitely vigorous exercise for her for sure.

And so I think that, you know, again, people can even with chronic illness and chronic conditions, you know, definitely talk to your physician, but there's ways that they can engage in particularly these, you know, shorter bursts of exercise as well.

And then athletes, right?

I mean, that's something that you're the athlete in the room.

Yeah.

Just since you are the athlete and you mentioned your 80-20 rule, everything you do would be considered vigorous, by the way, according to this study that we're talking about here today in Nature Communications.

How many hours a week do you spend?

Being physically active.

Now, you're not probably not going to count when you run with your dog or you run around with your kids.

So we're talking about the structure is not everything.

Just the the time that you set aside to do your actual like runs and hits.

Even your runs?

What's easy for you, Brady?

You guys hear that?
