Getting Exercised About Exercise
By Sandy Szwarc Published 01/08/2004

To combat the obesity epidemic our government wants us to get into
shape. Former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop's Shape Up America!
has been updated with Shape Up & Drop 10™ and Surgeon General David
Satcher's 10,000 Steps Program. A multitude of other compulsory exercise
programs targeting fat have also been instituted by major employers,
schools and healthcare providers.

The shared goal of these exercise initiatives is weight loss. The
underlying belief is that being "in shape" means being thin and no one
would be fat if everyone exercised. For consumers, the take home message
is that the whole point of exercise is to be thin. In fact, we're
admonished everyday to exercise to lose weight.

Trouble is, exercise - as necessary as it is for us -- won't make us thin.

"I think fitness and medical professionals are doing a disservice to
their clients when they position exercise as a way to lose weight," said
Jennifer Portnick, personal trainer and certified aerobic exercise
instructor at Feeling Good Fitness in the Bay area. "Becoming active may
or may not result in a change in weight."

But few of us realize that the most significant body of research shows
exercise doesn't appreciably change body weights at all.

Default Getting Exercised About Exercise (calories)


Unless you are a robot with an electrical power plug in, physical
activity (exercise) requires the burning of calories. If someone
increases his or her activity level without increasing food intake the
fuel needed for the extra activity will come from where? Another
astral plane?
Every day of the year the US military takes in a lot plump, soft
around the middle folks and quickly and reliably turns them into much
thinner, fitter type of people. Do you think that they accomplish this
by injecting them with top secret "fitness drugs" that they withold
from the civilian world on instructions from "Higher Authority"?
Studies are generally worthless if they rely, even slightly, on the
self reporting of eating habits or activity level. But their bodies do not lie.

LOL!

So healthy eating won't make you lose weight and now exercise is useless
too?? It sure sounds to me like you are advocating SLOTH and GLUTTONY.
Maybe if you stopped reading these articles (all written by the same Sandy
kook) and started getting on that treadmill you'd be thinner.

HTH

What the hell are you grunting about you drunk cow? The original post was
NOT a forgery. I wonder if you bother to read posts anymore. As you are
so fond of saying "CHECK THE HEADERS".
