Isn’t “exercise” an incredibly broad category? Saying “exercise isn’t necessarily good” is a bit like saying “drugs aren’t necessarily good”. Obviously, there are going to be combinations of exercise and people that don’t lead to good outcomes. Broken leg + running a marathon = bad.
I’ve been running up against the prototype vs. whole range issue on this, and I’m not sure how I want to handle it.
On the other hand, I think most people would think that 150 minutes of moderate cardio/week is beneficial (not just harmless) for anyone who isn’t obviously incapacitated.
