Does physical exertion include recovery from injuries, infections etc

Actually yes. A high vo2max is correlated to many health benefits including better and faster recovery from illness. It even lowers your chance from death in a car crash. It’s crazy.

It’s pretty much doing cardio so a mix of zone 2 (easy pace) volume and intervals. Running, cycling and swimming are things I enjoy and you can do it very targeted but any cardio work will over time improve it.
