Exercise? When? How much?
"Crescent Mu_n" wrote in message
... : Time will tell. Time has already told. Nobody knows Jane's body better than Jane. I don't understand how you can argue with Jane over what works best for Jane's body. : What proven benefits are you speaking? Studies show that a 30-45 : minute brisk walking regimen 5-6 times weekly will give you all the : aerobic workout you need for improving and maintaining : cardiorespiratory health. The proven benefits that Jane has experienced in herself. Jane apparently wasn't in any of the "studies" that you mention. "Studies" are based on numbers of criteria on numbers of people. Jane is an individual who is perfectly capable of basing valid conclusions on observations she makes of herself. How do you know what Jane needs to improve and maintain her cardiorespiratory health? You are assuming that Jane is typical of the study participants, and she may not be. If I had to choose who I believe -- the "study" or Jane's observations about herself -- Jane wins the credibility contest hands down. In my opinion, scientific studies are no substitute for knowing what works best for your own body. David |
