Arnie said, “Every month, another hot take on food or nutrition causes you to worry. And next month, it’ll be something new. That’s the real poison—information that pushes you to extremes, creates confusion, and causes you to buy into behaviors that leave you worse off than you started.”

The bodybuilding icon an actor gave his “village” was the valuable information that certain activities can prevent 13 kinds of cancer. A research study that Arnie highlighted was a large one with 22,000 participants. The UK Biobank Accelerometry Study examined the effects of short bursts of activity and energy on adults who did not work out on a daily basis.

Researchers finally found that even a three-minute burst of exercise or energy was enough to decrease the possibility of cancer by 30%. The five-time Mr. Universe winner wrote, “Think sprinting up stairs or rushing around the home.” The Austrian Oak also made people aware that these short bursts of energy were not necessarily exercising. It was just a matter of getting the heart rate to increase through day-to-day activities.
