how do you arrive at 2hrs a day? AFAICT 1hr a day gives you 90-95% benefit of 2hrs. To put it another way, comparing to 2hrs 15mins = 50% benefit 30mi

how do you arrive at 2hrs a day? AFAICT 1hr a day gives you 90-95% benefit of 2hrs.
To put it another way, comparing to 2hrs
15mins = 50% benefit
30mins = 75% benefit
60mins = 90-95% benefit
120mins = 100%
Everyone has their own thresholds but paying double for 5-10% more doesn't seem worth it to me personally.

- _kb 1y agoThe secret is to have a very low peak. More of an athletic knoll really.
- Llamamoe 1y agoIs this based on personal experience, or do you have a source? My own science-based impression was that it's more important to break up sedentary time with activity, and reach higher than mild physical exertion at least a bit, than it is to target any specific amount of time.
