The "biggest loser", Charles Atlas, Jack Lalane, Jane Fonda, Richard Simmons, and Judi Sheppard Missett (Jazzercise) all participated in the exercise craze that attempted to mimic the cult of the athlete in the quest for a moderate weight. This has subsequently increased the success of orthopedics, podiatry and chiropractics with no lasting success for the fight against OBESITY. Euripides stated 2400 years ago "Athletes are slaves to their belly, and know not how to live well. In youth they strut about in splendor, the idols of the fans, but when old age comes upon them they are cast aside like worn out coats. Neglecting the old rule of health which prescribes moderation in all things they spend their lives in over-exercising, in over-eating and over sleeping. Hence they seldom live to old age and if they do, they are crippled and liable to all sorts of diseases. They have not health nor have they beauty. Even those who are naturally well proportioned become fat and bloated, their faces are often shapeless and unsightly." We need to avoid this trap and move into understanding how to eat, how to wisely exercise so our precious muscles, tendons and joints are not damaged. We offer this new common sense approach to weight loss for the rest of your life.
