Reply to Exercise linked with increased longevity. Compared with just two minutes of vigorous activity per week, 15 minutes was associated with an 18% lower risk of death and a 15% lower likelihood of cardiovascular disease, while 12 minutes was associated with a 17% reduced risk of cancer by Wagamaga

Is there a level at which the effects top out? Like 30 minutes is better than 10, but is two hours better than 30 minutes? Is 10 hours better than two hours? 40 hours better than 10? I assume somewhere along that path you hit diminishing returns health-wise but don't have a strong prediction of where that level would be.
