LOL! Slow down there.... I'm not angry about it, just commenting that knowing human nature like I do, folks who finally came out of their do-nothing mode and agreed that doing something was a worthwhile goal might find the suggestion that you have to do at least an hour daunting. That's just human nature - a certain percentage of people who started doing something, even if it was only a few moments a day, will see that study and use it as impetus to go harder/longer/achieve more. But a certain percentage would find it defeating.
You're preaching to the choir here. I'm an avid exerciser myself - I do cardio and an intense strength training regimen at least 5 days a week for at least an hour and a half. No slacking here! But I'm also work in the mental health field and I know a lot of the people here at work that finally got moving and were taking some pride in that, after basically inactive lifestyles, will find the message that it needs to be an hour or else daunting, to say the least. I can see some of them mentally throwing in the towel already. Hopefully not too many.
