IIRC, my grandfather who didn’t exercise, smoked his entire adult life, drank, and ate whatever his southern wife fried up for him, lived longer 🤣. Not by much, but still longer.
I live in the comfort that the men in my family don’t live super long. I’m okay with that.
There’s more to life than living long. I would rather be healthy and energetic than lethargic and tired all the time. Even if genetics play a large role in longevity, my own choices decide how I feel, and I feel way better if I exercise. Healthspan is more important than lifespan.
