Ready for some exciting news? A new review of 85 studies just came out in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, and the takeaway was loud and clear: If you move your body regularly, you lower your risk of dying from any cause by up to 40%. And here’s the best part… Even if someone had been mostly sedentary for decades, just starting to move more later in life was still linked to a 20–25% reduction in the risk of early death. We’re not talking about elite workouts or perfect routines here, either! We’re talking about real-life movement. Things like: It all counts. And here's the breakdown: 1️⃣ If you’re consistently active over time, you could cut your risk of death by 30–40%. 2️⃣ If you start being active later… that’s still 20–25% lower risk! 3️⃣ Even movement below the recommended guidelines shows meaningful benefits. Consistency matters most, though… The more regularly you move, the bigger the payoff! How to make it happen (what most experts recommend): Not only are there longevity payoffs, there are more immediate ones: more energy, better mood, feeling stronger, and renewed confidence.
