Move or Die! (The Exercise Your Body Needs)

Few topics that health enthusiasts obsess over are more loved and hated than exercise. It is the centerpiece for many diet programs, and is at the heart of any strength training program. Many programs are fads, but the underlying reality is that we must either move or die. The body requires a certain amount of activity to keep the cardiovascular and respiratory systems working properly. Muscles obviously need to be flexed, stretched, and rested. But the bones also are designed to bear weight. If they don't, they will de-calcify quickly. Without healthy blood, every other organ will begin to fail. Even former athletes will deteriorate and die of diseases typical of a sedentary lifestyle unless there is some form of regular physical activity. Join us as we discuss the most loved and hated aspect of health maintenance.
