How is exercise a medical intervention to begin with?
If someone is ill and that illness can be alleviated or eliminated by introducing physical activity to their routine, I feel, would constitute a medical intervention.
There are two ways to interpret it:
one is in terms of its effect size, if it could have been an intervention; the other, as pointed out above, is that there are patients to whom exercise is prescribed e.g. T2D, dyslipidemias and cardiovascular disease.

How is exercise a medical intervention to begin with? I'll have to watch that, it's quite lengthy, just wondering about the framing of the title.

I heard that laughter was the best, so maybe exercise is a close second.
