So we're a step closer to a pill that can replace exercise.
I know that there is an obesity crisis and things need to be done but this makes me sad, as if exercise is a thing to be avoided.
This news came out the same day as my car broke down. I had to cancel a class and then arrange a lift to my evening classes - I was particularly stressed by the time I got to the church ready to teach!! But a healthy dose of exercise later I felt much better.
Benefits of exercise
From those three classes I:- reduced stress,
- got stronger,
- worked my cardiovascular system,
- burned calories,
- increased my metabolic rate,
- downtrained my sympathetic nervous system,
- connected with other women,
- felt happy,
- mobilised my joints,
- kept my bones healthy and
- stimulated my brain.
