🤔 operating well within your means
- an unexpected benefit of exercise is how much better it feels to do day-to-day tasks at, say, 50% of your max capacity than 90% of your max capacity
- especially mundane things, like: getting of bed, walking up a flight of stairs, reaching up and down to put away dishes, etc.
- (your muscle strength and cardio capacity stabilize at a level modestly above the average demands placed on them)
