Quote of the Day

Did you see it this morning? The news that a combination of aerobic exercise and weight training controlled blood sugar in diabetics better than either form of exercise alone? Doesn't strike me as earth-shaking news -- take a walk, strengthen your muscles, your body will work better. Go figure.

But I just loved this quote from a doctor involved in the study: "It's clear that doing both aerobic and strength training is superior to either alone," said lead author Dr. Tim Church of Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, La. "It's almost like taking two different drugs."

Get that? Taking care of yourself is like taking drugs.

This is the mindset we're up against. Sheesh.
