I agree and it's like we don't even need because we have so much data I don't even think we need to do use that assumption anymore we can really say valid like what is what is the range where you get this maximal risk reduction we have that and And we can just say okay for the guidelines like let's use that 5 to 35% risk reduction and say for 5% risk reduction you need x am minutes and then up to 35 you need that that's where the dose response is and that's how much activity you need.

I mean I think the bottom line here and I don't know what it takes to get updates in these types of guidelines but I think they need there needs to be an update like this is something that needs to happen. Um, you know, we have empirical evidence here. We're not just looking at weight loss. It's not all about, you know, caloric expenditure, energy expenditure here, right? We're looking at actual health outcomes and we're looking at what it took in terms of like, you know, the types of exercise to achieve those risk reductions and those health outcomes.
