If you look at body fat, it seems to increase with age, even though your weight does not. That's a physiological fact of aging, they say. Heck it is. It is an adaptive effect of aging.

Now I say that if you run more than 15 miles a week, it's for something other than aerobic fitness. Once you pass 15 miles, you do not see much further improvement.

Exercise can't counteract the damage being done to your body while you continue to smoke. What exercise can do is help you kick the habit.

The reason I exercise is for the quality of life I enjoy.

We are involved in youth testing internationally. We want to try to prove without a shadow of a doubt the relationship between physical fitness and health, not just physical fitness and ability to perform.

Aerobic dancing is already adjusting to injury problems and will probably phase out to some extent.
