Do you dread going to the gym for what feels like hours at a stretch? Or do you avoid working out altogether because you just don't have the time? Then what I'm about to tell you should be music to your ears: when it comes to exercise, less is more.

Ah well, back to the 'Norm Peterson Cardiac Workout' I guess.

And how many people are over-exercising? One per 5 million?

Probably 70% of those exercising are 'doing it all wrong'. The 'cronic cardio club' is giant, along with the 'no pain, no gain' crowd and the 'if you're not losing weight you're not exercising hard enough' people.

I totally disagree with you. 98% aren't exercising at all, and that is far far worse. Not exercising causes metabolism to slow, sends the body into almost a hibernation mode where most calories are stored as fat, and causes a slowing of all your systems. Warning people AGAINST exercising is ludicrous.
