INSIGHT

Daily Movement Trumps Many Risk Factors

  • Daily movement predicts all-cause mortality better than many classic risk factors like smoking or diabetes.
  • About 8,000 steps/day captures roughly 80% of the mortality-related benefits of activity.
ADVICE

Pair Short Strength Sessions With Daily Movement

  • Do strength training for high return on time: 15 minutes daily or two 45-minute sessions weekly work well.
  • But combine that with daily movement; a short strength session alone isn't enough if you sit all day.
ADVICE

Leverage Post-Workout Momentum

  • After strength sessions you naturally move more that day; use that momentum to add chores or extra activity.
  • Schedule small productive tasks post-workout to capitalize on higher energy.
