If people walked even a single hour per day they'd be much better off. With a typical office job you can easily get literally 0 minute of activity in your day.

If people walked even a single hour per day they'd be much better off. With a typical office job you can easily get literally 0 minute of activity in your day. A decent diet, one hour of walk every evening and 30min of heavy lifts every other day and you'll be the fittest person in the room 90% of the time, such a small price to pay

- keybored 3y ago> the fittest person in the room 90% of the time, such a small price to pay Such a small price to pay for what? The median person has notoriously bad diet, bad exercise/movement habits, etc. so what does being in 90th percentile even tell you? And what does it tell you to be > and I'm healthier than 99% of people I meet Because apparently this just says that you are more fit than a seal with pneumonia in the middle of a desert. It seems more natural to ask what concretely you will be able to do. Because if I just wanted to get the Xth percentile bragging rights—which a lot of fitness bizarrely boils down to, with all the health benefits just being eh—I would just hang out with my father’s friends more.
