Posted on Feb 04, 2010 | Comments 1
Now the scientists are telling all the couch potatoes just what they wanted to hear; that aerobic exercise could just be a waste of time.
This is because the health benefit that activities such as swimming, going to the gym and jogging offer us is determined by our genes.
According to this article, an estimated 20% of people do not get any significant aerobic fitness benefit from regular exercise and won’t help prevent heart disease and diabetes.
For many, the better course would be to alter their diet and take medications.
The study that quotes these findings relied up on the human genome to suggest improvements in healthcare, so that more personalized treatments could be offered to more individuals.

Genes do have alot to do with what becomes of your body and its attributes, but you can always do something about it.
Just for example take the contestants off of the biggest loser. Many of them have medical conditions, are over weight, and their parents were also over weight.
Alot of them lose a bunch of weight, get off their medication, all due to the exercise and nutrition.
Sitting on the couch wouldn’t help anyone, in my opinion.
