A few months ago ago, I wrote about a pair of studies showing that “weekend warriors”—those who concentrate their weekly exercise into one or two days— can achieve health benefits comparable to those who spread their activity throughout the week. How frequently one exercises may not be as important as how much.

Exercising to get your V02 max to very high levels is something many people will struggle to do. Because with good nutrition and exercise, it is possible to reduce your blood pressure if needed. 2025 is a New Year. There are very few if any, things in medicine that are associated with that magnitude of benefit. But walking.
