    If you have a condition that prevents you from moving/ elevated heart rate, chances are you not working and already on disability.

    Ah, no. Plenty of us work. Desk jobs exist. I sit at one now. I have been told by my doctor I should not jog or run due to the impact to my knees.

    I understand the article says this but how do you police it. Put your fitness tracker to “Outdoor run” and call it day. Unless there are stricter measurements around heart rate and minimum speeds I don’t fully buy this.

    So you don’t know how they police it, but 1 sentence later you see how easy it is to police.

    So start. If a company is going to incentivize you to not be a slob maybe just go do it. Life isn’t fair. Stop making excuses and be a better version of yourself.

    Ah, the old “life isn’t fair” copout. Why should we not do our best to be fair?

    Idk, maybe they want their employees to not die of heart failure at 40 and see them grow to be old and successful.

    Ah, yes, because there is no daylight between the binary options of heart failure at 40 and growing old.
