Jake Setterlun argues that weightlifting is the 20% of effort that delivers 80% of fitness results, especially for people with injuries or limited time. A solid strength session takes 40 to 50 minutes, not an hour and a half. Running, CrossFit, and HIIT often leave him injured.

For me, it's lifting, lifting weights. So I've gone up and down. You know, I mentioned I've fallen into training 3 times a day. You know, running has come and gone. I get a lot of injuries, unfortunately, just, you know, from doing the CrossFit-y type stuff and some of the HIIT type exercises. But lifting is something that everybody can do. Even if you're suffering from injuries, there's ways around it. So that's from a physical standpoint. And then even just from a busy schedule, you don't need an hour and a half training session. If you're really getting in there, you can get in there 40 minutes, 50 minutes and have a fantastic session. And I think that's one of that falls into the 80/20 rule, that it's that 20% that you can do that you're gonna get 80% of your results, is so lifting weights. And for me, that holds true.
