How the frick do yall have an hour 5 days a week to just go jogging? Maybe it’s the age of my kids and them being so into sports but I barely have time to lift 3x per week

Theres definitely a point of diminishing returns on strength that doesn’t seem to exist with vo2 max.I think we all know someone who lifts 5 days a week who could die at any moment from a heart attack. Bodybuilders and strongmen have horrible life spans. Being huge and manipulating your hormones for decades is not great for you.

The answer is probably to make sure you are strong and in shape. If you are completely neglecting one aspect of fitness it probably would benefit you greatly to pay it a little attention.

I don’t think one hour per day or 7 hours a week for fitness is ridiculous.

Not sure why you're being down voted but I absolutely do not have time to run/lift in the evenings. If it's not baseball, it's track, or church, or football. Literally every day of the week. I've started lifting at 4:30 and although I hate it, it is the best way. Lift 4 days, walk 3 days.
