I have an hypothesis that exercise is beneficial up to exactly the point where you start getting “fitter” That is, there is an optimal point at which your metabolism is exactly exhausted daily, without needing to increase, but neither needing to find alternate process to pour energy into The theory being that if you do not exercise your body spends the excess energy on causing trouble for the body However by increasing metabolism you raise the floor for what is the necessary exercise you need, while at the same time increase “wear and tear” simply burning more energy To be clear, there is absolutely no science behind this, just idle curiosity
