Exercising more will lead to greater health benefits for most of the population.

“the inverted j curve a lot of the the harvard prospective study even though they're prospective they're still epidemiologic a critic of this would say look we don't have any randomized data experimental human randomized data to tell us that the dose curve to exercise is non-linear”

“99 of the population are on the side of the curve where they could always benefit from exercising more”

“the dose you need to get most of the health benefits is very small and i do think that's an important message you do not need to train or for or run marathons in order to be optimally healthy”

“this is a discussion that only really impacts like one percent of the population because 99 of the population are on the side of the curve where they could always benefit from exercising more”

“this is a discussion that only really impacts like 1% of the population because 99% of the population are on the side of the curve where they could always benefit from exercising more”

“There's definitely evidence that individuals who over a lifetime engage in very high intensity, very high volume exercise may be at greater risk for some of these issues that you just referred to, heart issues.”

“And probably the safest advice would be, you know, extreme exercise may carry some consequences, right? Whether it's the U-shape or the the J-shaped curve, there is something to that.”

“if your goal is look I'm happy with my you know 30 minute 5K and I don't care about running that faster I just want to stay well then then increasing the dose has less benefit for you”
