Benefits of exercise better than we thought

Makes sense, since benefits were actually measured and exercise was just self reported.

No question in my mind, I see the stark difference in people I know.

Yes, I am in good shape for 65. That is definitely due to 20 years on the treadmill every day.

That was a great investment.

I don't see how you can do it everyday and keep it fresh...

Me neither. I end up on the treadmill much of the winter and even with an interesting audiobook or podcast it kills me.

One difference is I’m doing an hour not 20m. But still.

Treadmill.....,, that's that thing you hang clothes on, right?

30-60 minutes of displeasure and tedium immediately cashed for 8-12 hours of significantly enhanced experience.

The thing about exercise is you can’t bank it, there is little to store, you need to accumulate it every day.

I can't feature it - at all.

I walk. 3-4 times a week, 5 miles or more.

The only restrictions are:

1. Rain
2. Heat (greater than 80 degrees)
3. Cold (less than 15 degrees)

I tolerate cold very well. Heat, not so much.

It's been a shitty August.

Netflix, Amazon, DVDs

It gets to be like brushing your teeth, every morning and night
