Not at all. Anecdotal evidence is important. I also attribute my progress (diagnosed with stage 4b in 2021 but still NED and PSA < 0.01 after almost 4 years) partly to staying physically active, and expect that there will be even more evidence to back that up in the future.
If nothing else, being fit helps me to tolerate the side effects of my treatment better, and ecouraged my onco team to go all out with some strong therapies (so I've been able to stay on them), and also encouraged my onco team to use strong, "curative" treatments rather than milder, palliative ones. But like you, I think there's likely more to it than just that.
