Speaker
And when you take. The stairs instead of the lips. It's better for the climate as well.

Speaker 2
I'd just like to say one thing, which is I hate to exercise with other people. I would never take a group exercise class, so I lift weights by myself. Every day. Uh. Because I don't like to exercise with other people. So I do think that, uh, you don't need to exercise in company. And in fact, if you look at the clinical benefits in clinical trials, there is no evidence for any disease that I could think of where group exercise is better than individual exercise when it's been looked at for psychological outcomes, physical outcomes, etcetera. Although I agree it is one way to socialise, I think for people who, uhm, like to exercise alone, it's OK too. It works just as well.

According to Speaker 2, what is their opinion on group exercise compared to individual exercise in terms of benefits?
