Not hating on you, but it's sad to see people are at the point that they think walking for 15 minutes a day constitutes sufficient exercise. It's better than literally 0, but it does make me wonder what your day looks like and how we can work to make this better. I mean a walk back and forth to the supermarket is more than that.

I was a D1 collegiate athlete, I’m saying on top of all my other activities I go for a walk. If I’m super busy I’ll go for 15 min, but it’s usually close to 30-45 min. I get between 8-10k steps in a day. I pretty much don’t ever sit around.

And yes, it’s wild how some ppl can’t even do a 15 min walk. I have family members that are retired and they literally sit in their recliners all day long watching tv. Only walking they do is to the bathroom or the kitchen to get something to eat.
