Does hopping up from an online meeting and running into the kitchen for a cup of coffee or a handful of snacks encompass this “less than 30 minutes of higher-intensity exercise”?

Less than 30 minutes of higher-intensity exercise was the sweet spot for helping executive functioning in the brain.

Exactly what Dr. Cooper found to be the sweet spot for aerobic conditioning. 30 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week or 20 minutes of aerobic exercise four times a week.

It seems likely increasing the aerobic capacity of the body results in better brain function.

My exercise routine is about 22-25 minutes of aerobic exercise five times a week. I occasionally skip a day.
