Comments on: Is Exercise Making us Fat? a rebuttal to TIME magazine, part 1 http://www.fitnessrocks.org/2009/09/03/is-exercise-making-us-fat-a-rebuttal-to-time-magazine-2/ A podcast that wants to change the health of the world Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:08:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Pete http://www.fitnessrocks.org/2009/09/03/is-exercise-making-us-fat-a-rebuttal-to-time-magazine-2/comment-page-1/#comment-11047 Pete Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:08:17 +0000 http://www.fitnessrocks.org/?p=667#comment-11047 Dr. Monte, I wanted to thank you for posting this excellent rebuttal to the Time Magazine article. I actually assigned that article to my Exercise Physiology class to read last week, and we had an excellent discussion of its shortcomings. Given the level of student interest, I'm assigning them to listen to this podcast episode as a way of demonstrating that you can't believe everything you read in a popular media article. Great Work! Pete Dr. Monte,

Since 2007 I've listened to all the episodes, followed the recommendations you make based on the medical research, and I'm pleased with the results. At some point I'll go through and listen to the episodes again, but if there are new ones from time to time, so much the better. Thanks!

I just caught your podcast this morning while working out. I thought I'd dip into an old one of yours and found this new one. You are always the welcome voice of scientific reason on these issues. I don't think anyone else summarizes, synthesizes, mixes, combines and interviews key figures on exercise and health as well as you do. And with no conflicts of interest. As you've spoken before on disease compression, lowering the cost of chronic disease, and lowering the cost of health care, these points need to be taken into account in the upcoming health care reform debate. And of course they are vital to all of us as individuals. Welcome back. I just caught your podcast this morning while working out. I thought I’d dip into an old one of yours and found this new one.
