Louis Massaro argues that some form of daily exercise—walking, yoga, gym, rowing, CrossFit, etc.—is critical for physical longevity, mental sharpness, energy, clarity, and the ability to pursue personal missions and engage with family. He emphasizes even short bouts (e.g., 20-minute walks) as necessary to prevent burnout and maintain stamina.
Some type of exercise routine is critical. So if that's, you know, going for a walk, if that's doing some yoga, if that's going to the gym, if that's doing CrossFit, if that's rowing your boat, like, whatever you're, you know, going out and rowing, like, whatever it is for you, you've got to do that, right? If you can't get yourself 20 minutes in, even just doing a walk, like, this is. This is yourself, like, you're going to burn out. Your body's not going to last as long as you want it to last. You're not going to be as sharp. For me, exercise and all the stuff we're going to talk about in stamina was more so about how do I go achieve my mission and have the energy and have the clarity and be able to have the excitement and feel good? And now it's like, how do I make sure that I can play with my kids and not. I can't get up and I can't breathe. Slow down, I need a break. These are the things. We need this in our day. We need some form of exercise in every day.
