Exercise Won't Make You Thin {Asylum}

Aug 12th 2009 2:24PM OH JESUS!!! NOT THIS CRAP AGAIN!!! TIME magazine made this their cover story not too long ago (maybe even currently?). And all you fat asses who want an excuse to stay on the couch and justify it are taking this study and running with it. Fact of the matter is, physical activity not only helps improve your body composition, it can help prevent a TON of diseases, one of the biggest being type II diabetes. This is so aggravating that the American College of Sports Medicine (of whom I am a member) even sent out a press release for all of its members to pass on to local newspapers explaining the stupidity of these studies. Heck, I don't think any of us need studies to see that people who are active, climb mountains, lift weights, run marathons etc... look better and are healthier than people who stay on the couch all day. UGH!
