Reply to comment by thejml2000 in Regular physical activity may boost effectiveness of COVID-19 jab. Risk of hospital admission among fully vaccinated healthcare workers was reduced by 60% in the group who engaged in low levels of physical activity, and by 72% and 86% in the medium and high physical activity groups, respectively by Wagamaga

I think the central goal is 150 minutes right? Sounds like you're way above the population yourself.

Anecdotally, I’m fully vaccinated. I work out about 8 hours a week on average with a combination of aerobic and strength training exercise. Like tonight ran five miles then lifted weights for half an hour. I really haven’t been sick since last year.

Yeah I used to have Spotify. There's an app to switch playlists over. Am I happy with the switch? Yeah. The audio quality is higher and if you have apple headphones they have the whole spatial audio thing. For me it made sense because I'm deep in the Apple ecosystem, but a few years ago I wouldn't have made the switch.

Reply to Meeting your daily step goal really does work to prevent important illnesses. Taking more than 8,200 steps a day – the equivalent of walking around four miles – was found to protect against the likes of obesity, sleep apnoea, high blood pressure and major depressive disorder by Wagamaga

I get mine in during exercise. About 10,000 steps during a five mile run six days a week. It really does make a difference in how you physically feel.
