The Amazing ROI of Exercise: 10 Years of Life for One Year of Workouts

This article explores the return on investment (ROI) of exercise. The author, a regular exerciser, argues that even considering only lifespan extension, the roughly 8500 hours spent exercising over a lifetime (3 hours/week) can yield an extra 3-10 years of life, potentially even a 1:10 return! This is a conservative estimate, excluding numerous other benefits like increased strength, mental clarity, improved sleep, etc., all enjoyed throughout life. The author encourages readers to start small and build a sustainable exercise routine, reaping the rewards of health and longevity.
