Kirk EricksonGUEST
It's what you're asking is an incredibly important question, especially for public health policies, guidelines that get created.

Kirk EricksonGUEST
It's really important for prescriptive purposes, right? The way I often think about it is you go to your physician tells you, you need to get more physical activity.

Kirk EricksonGUEST
but your physician is rarely telling you exactly the details of how much you should be getting the frequency that you should be getting it should you be taking this once in the morning and once in the evening there's no pill for exercise it's not that it's not that the prescription it looks very different right now but we often think about exercise as a form of medicine Without the parameters that you mentioned, talking about how much is needed, when you should get it, the intensity that you should get, without this information, there is no script.

Kirk EricksonGUEST
So we can rely on general public health guidelines right now, which are generally try to achieve at least 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise.
