Achieving 180-200 minutes of Zone 2 cardio per week has significant positive effects on longevity, cardiovascular function, metabolic fuel utilization, and musculature.

“which we should all be doing for minimum of 150-200min of per week”

“for brain & body health we should all get ~150-180min of zone 2 (mellow-ish) cardio”

“A concrete example that I'm following now, is this 150 to 200 minutes of zone two cardio per week, because that's shown to be very effective in improving mental and physical health metrics.”

“that getting 150 to 180 minutes of so-called zone two cardio, - Yeah. - can just barely have a conversation, but if one were to push any harder, you wouldn't be able to, that kind of thing. It's just as a kind of a generic recommendation that almost everybody should follow, in order to just keep their cardiovascular system healthy.”

“Zone two, you have almost no ability to block your hypertrophy. Zone two, truly, if it's really within that category, if you're talking about conversational pace, there is very, in fact there is strong reason to think that is not going to influence hypertrophy for the overwhelming majority of people.”

“I'm of the mind, based on the data that I've seen, that almost everybody should, or everybody should be getting 150 to 180 minutes minimum of Zone 2 cardio per week that kind of could continue while having a conversation, but if one were to exert any more effort, it would have a hard time getting the words out. At least that, right? For cardiovascular health and general brain health and musculoskeletal health plus resistance exercise.”

“100 and 180 to 200 minutes of Zone 2 cardio kind of jogging cycling swimming type behavior is very healthy for everybody and we should all be doing that at least that yes I need to as well”

“getting 180 to 200 minutes of zone two cardio per week has enormous positive effects on longevity and enormous positive effects on general health, again, in terms of cardiovascular function, but also metabolic fuel utilization, also in terms of your musculature and your ability to use your body over long distances for long periods of time.”

“Now, the scientific data tell us that we should all be getting anywhere from 150 minutes to 200 minutes per week minimum of zone 2 cardio for sake of cardiovascular health, cerebrovascular health, and a number of other aspects of health that are important essentially to everybody for health span and life span”

“He said, first of all, zone 2 cardio is absolutely critical to our health for a number of reasons that I already mentioned. But in addition to that, zone 2 cardio does not impede, and in fact, can enhance our other aspects of fitness. So for example, our strength training, our hypertrophy training, or any type of speed work, or other types of cardiovascular training one might do.”

“the general agreement is that everyone should be getting somewhere between 150 to 200 minutes of so-called Zone 2 low intensity cardiovascular exercise per week”

“150 probably more like 180 to 200 minutes of so-called Zone 2 cardio per week is good numbers to shoot for”

“almost everybody should or everybody should be getting 150 to 180 minutes minimum of zone 2 cardio per week.”
