🏃♀️🏋️♂️ Does variety in physical activity matter for longevity? A large prospective analysis suggests it does: people who engaged in a wider mix of activity types tended to have lower all-cause mortality, even after accounting for total activity and key covariates. 🌈📉
Key practical takeaway: don't just "do more"—do different (walk + cycle + swim + strength, etc.). ✅🫀
As always, this is observational data (residual confounding + self-report remain). Still, it's a compelling nudge toward diversity in movement as a realistic, patient-friendly goal. 💡👟
