Rhonda Patrick: Do more “exercise snacks”
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Do 1-2 minute “exercise snacks” 3x/day (e.g., sprinting stairs, brisk walking) to lower mortality risk
- Opportunistically elevate heart rate with everyday activities (skip elevators, walk vigorously)
- Non-exercisers see benefits: 40% lower cancer/all-cause mortality, 50% lower cardiovascular mortality
- Prioritize intensity – go faster than your normal pace for short bursts
Notable Quotes
“They have a 40% lower cancer-related mortality, a 40% lower all-cause mortality, and a 50% lower cardiovascular related mortality than people not doing these short bursts.”
Bottom Line
Incorporate 3 intense 1-2 minute movement bursts daily by optimizing normal activities (stairs, walking) – even small efforts provide major longevity benefits.
