there is evidence though that vo2 matters for longevity but much stronger evidence that muscle mass matters more…rank things after diet 1) heavy resistance training 2) sprints or some kind of weighted/heavy metabolic conditioning like strong man or sleds etc 3) jump/plyometric/throwing training to remain explosive 4) walking 5) vo2 max training is how i would rank them for longevity and overall health

3-4 sessions of strength plus 8-10 min max conditioning plus 8k steps a day is more than sufficient for 98%+ of people

This is what you were saying at the beginning of the thread, which is very different to what you are saying now, perhaps you can see the difference.

Also, I never argued for jogging and in fact agreed with you that jogging was unnecessary and in some ways counterproductive. I was also the first person to bring up inclined walking in the thread

and i still say that of the 5 things i listed....VO2 max training like jogging is the least important

and 2 focused strength sessions plus 8k steps per day is more than 95% of americans do currently

the 3-4 sessions plus hard conditioing plus walking is more than 98-99% do.

so yea i wasnt wrong on that.

im sure in a perfect world it would be exactly like Rusin says or one of the others but most normal people dont have 15 hours to dedicate to fitness in a week

and when im talking VO2 max training, im talking traditional...jogging on a treadmill, jogging in the neighborhood, riding a stationary bike, elliptical etc

which imo is shite.
