Be “Harder to kill”
Those who are physically active have a lower all cause mortality rate vs those who are sedentary
Moderate intensity exercise: 150-300m / week
If you double or quadruple this amount: 300-600m / week
Even more effective in reducing all cause mortality: 26-31%
Vigorous intensity exercise: 75-150m / week
Those who are performing less than the minimum recommendation of exercise see the most benefits
You become less prone to disease, your mind and body become more resilient, you can meet the demands of everyday life: work challenges, issues in personal life, and overall physical preparedness
Have the freedom and independence to do what you like, when you like
Being generally fit, especially through exercise that is applicable to daily life, allows you to be ready for whatever comes your way
Ie. if you want to go hiking, no problem ⇒ running late and need to take the stairs or catch the bus, no problem ⇒ need to move some furniture around, no problem
