How do you manage to exercise 31.5 hours a week? That's basically a full time job!

I'd say I'm in pretty good shape, and I gym around 5 hours a week and play sport another one hour, so that's 6 total.

Notice that's where the italics start, i.e. '3*1.5 hours a week', and if I carefully don't use another asterisk at the end of my post (unlike GP)...

That makes a lot more sense! The comment is edited now though, much more readable :)

My EDIT: caused my first * to be consumed.

I exercise 3 times per week roughly 90 minutes. each time.

He meant 3 times a week, 1.5 hours at a time.

I'd be skeptical of you trying to assume what someone else said. However `3` is un-italic while `1.5` is italic. It can be hard to spot that difference in font. I'd say you're right.

The edit makes it a lot clearer, indeed. Cheers!
