Whoops, didn’t see your comment at first. Sorry. Replied about n-back in another comment. Also, do you think none of the tasks for level 1 should require any training? SarahC, who proposed using the ExRx scale for strength, said she had to train a little before she reached the “untrained” level.
Yes but many people will need to “train a little” to be able to walk for 30 min without stopping for a breath. Same with cooking pancakes, or programming.
I think my idiomatic phrasing of “some” is probably the problem here, so let me be more explicit. For me (and many other people), I would need to train a lot to run for a mile.
As I am in fact currently training to run, I can tell you that it has taken me two months so far to get to a stage where I can only walk/jog for twenty minutes, not yet actually run a full mile in one go. I expect to be able to do that at the end of this month.
Uh… I’m really sorry to say this, but training for three months to run a mile is not average. You’re probably training incorrectly. I just looked on the internet and most programs for beginners say that after 8 weeks you should be running about 2 miles in one go, and they use a very relaxed training schedule (20-30 minutes, 3 times a week).

It is not level one.
