Dont understand the "activity" part, the post implied sleeping was fine, so does breathing count?

It seems hard to get completely away from signaling. There are times when people intentionally slow their breathing to signal that the exercise they just finished wasn't as hard for them as it really was.

Well we don't often reason about whether to breathe, but when we do so reason, yes this could count.
