Aerobics Speeds Aging-Say no to Aerobics

By Bryon Zirker

For 20 years or more it has been known that a persons lung
capacity is an indicator of longevity. The facts found in the
famous "Framingham Heart Study" put forth this: The bigger
that your lungs are the longer your life will be.

Regrettably aerobics instead of lengthening your life actually
makes you more prone to chronic disease by shrinking your
lungs. This is how your body copes with the long term effects
of stress that aerobics puts on it. So aerobics which was supposed
to help you live longer does the opposite.

This news is disturbing. Since your lungs naturally decrease in
size with age. It is important to do activities that increase lung
size not decrease it. Aerobics speeds up your aging and will spell
your end early. Try doing wind sprints if you run or weight training.
Short term high intensity exercise is best.

As a nurse I have never seen an older person with lung disease from aerobic activity, that makes no sense. The few athlete deaths that you see are due to unfortunate underlying heart problems that became obvious under stress. That information is clearly flawed. I would love to see the data to support this author's opinion..........

I did a little research and found this study which responds to those claims:
Here is an excerpt of the conclusions:

"In the area of aging, exercise, and cardiovascular function, the concept has been established and widely promoted that the rate of decline in maximal aerobic capacity with age is markedly attenuated in adults who perform regular aerobic exercise. In contrast, our present findings indicate that both absolute and relative rates of decline in maximal aerobic capacity were not different in endurance-trained, active, and sedentary healthy men. There are at least three independent lines of evidence to support our finding. First, as early as 1977, Hodgson and Buskirk (9) reported dissertation data showing no association between endurance training status and an age-associated rate of decline in O2 max. Second, in a review paper, Saltin (22) presented unpublished data demonstrating that the average rate of decline in O2 max with age was essentially the same in endurance-trained orienteers and in healthy controls. Third, recent longitudinal studies in endurance-trained men reported similar rates of decline in O2 max to those previously reported in sedentary men (7, 18, 25). Taken together, these results suggest that the age-related rate of decline in O2 max is not associated with habitual exercise status in healthy men.

We want to emphasize that, although the rate of decline in O2 max with age was similar among the three groups, the endurance-trained men possess higher absolute levels of physiological functional capacity than do sedentary men at any age. Thus men who regularly engage in aerobic exercise are capable of performing physical tasks that cannot be performed by their sedentary peers (27). Additionally, based on epidemiological data (1, 2, 10), physically active men are at lower risk of premature mortality and functional disability."

If aerobics speeds aging, the human race would have become extinct long ago.

Ancient man relied upon aerobic exercise to survive; back then, he didn't walk for exercise, he walked and even ran out of daily necessity, and all the time. Hunting, gathering, building canoes, spear-fishing...that's all aerobic.

The human machine was designed by nature to operate aerobically -- and anaerobically.

Some people have Brain Farts:


Like a Complex Body Part, it is without a Bleeding Heart, that I advise you are experiencing an INTENSE Brain Fart and this is real Tart

oh no, i just had a scary thought. If aerobic training make your lungs shrink does that mean that a lot of sex make your d:eek:ck shrink as well??
i hope not ....does it...



Honey, put your clothes back on.

I just read some disturbing news.....

oh ps before someone makes the comment that it is weird that that I post a comment while having sex.......
what can I say....

I am a multi-tasker
