Just 1.2 to 1.6 minutes of vigorous physical activity per day is associated with a 30% reduction in major cardiovascular events, a 33% lower risk of heart attack, and a 40% lower risk of heart failure. That's less than two minutes of vigorous exercise daily, and the impact on health is profound. This study builds on a growing body of evidence showing that short, intense bursts of physical activity—spread throughout the day—can have a significant impact on longevity. Interestingly, this latest research found the effects to be even more profound in women than in men. That said, other studies make it clear that men can absolutely benefit too. Other studies have found that individuals engaging in short bursts of vigorous physical activity, for just 1-2 minutes, 3x a day, had a 50% decrease in cardiovascular mortality and a 40% reduction in deaths from all causes and cancer. These studies utilize wearable devices to monitor vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity (VILPA) and have found that a little effort each day goes a long way in improving healthspan. For a deeper dive into the science of VILPA, check out FMF Episode 82 featuring @gibalam, where we break it all down. Study reference doi: 10.1136/bjsports-2024-108484

Day 2 (7-4, 72nd) at my first Worlds as a competitor. This season I shattered my limits and expectations and worked so hard to get to this point. I don't know what 2025 has in store yet, but I'll be leaving Hawaii and this season behind with the biggest smile on my face :)
