Fountain of Youth?

So everyone says exercise keeps them young and healthy, but does it really?

HECK YEAH!

And here is some factual scientific studies done by the Germans to prove it.

It ‘‘was striking,’’ recalls Dr. Christian Werner, an internal-medicine resident at Saarland University Clinic in Homburg, ‘‘to see in our study that many of the middle-aged athletes looked much younger than sedentary control subjects of the same age.’’

Basically the scientist looked at the actual cells, dna and such, of healthy individuals that ran 50 miles a week when compared to those who were sedentary and found that the cells of those who were physically active were younger! Exercise keeps you young even on a cellular level! Who cares about the lean and toned arms, legs and stomach that we all like to show off it's what's on the inside that counts right? Maybe? Okay so what's on the outside is great but this is really amazing too. If you want to read the entire article and the scientific mumbo jumbo that accompanies it click here.

So the next time you are watching your third straight hour of soap operas and mind numbing gossiping drama filth maybe think to yourself... Self, I want to be fitter and toned so that as I age I won't end up looking like a shriveled potato skin like that guy on the tv, lets get moving!...and know that you will be keeping yourself young on the inside as well.
