Re: Should a thin person exercise to gain weight? by MH


Interesting post MH. I must say I totally agree with :

"FOLKS, if I can do one thing correct in life, it is RELAXING! I must sweat every night and I don't care if it is 3am every night before I get to bed, I will sweat and relax before the lights go out and when the lights do go out, I am out in less than a minute!"

Many good ideas there, such as 1) Relaxing - which is a calming effect on just about every part of the body, which allows the healing process to take place, and 2) Sweating - which obviously moves toxins out of the body.

Where I disagree with you (or the author - I didn't read the piece), is regarding the concept of working out, although I can see where he is coming from. Working out is a stress on the body. The question becomes, is it a net gain or loss? In many cases it is a net gain, although it certainly has the potential to be a net loss. It all depends on the circumstances, the situation and the extremes. In general, exercise is a good thing. It is very beneficial to the cardiovascular system. In general, weight training is a good thing. It helps the cardiovascular system, plus numerous other systems, such as the skeletal, muscular, vascular etc. When not done to extreme it can benefit young and old, male and female, weak and strong. One should not deny the benefits of it. I can see where your post is coming from, but your readers will fall in the category of users who will benefit from working out. Whether weights or a treadmill/walking etc. There are so many stresses out there these days, but getting people off there asses is not one of them. One needs to differentiate what actually goes on in a gym and what one sees in the media with all of the athletes these days on steroids who push their bodies way too far. Two completely different things. The human body was meant to be exercised - the proof is there throughout history. However, it wasn't meant to take steroids, or run 50 miles at a clip, or push itself to the limit while overweight or full of toxins. But it was meant to exercise, and weight training has proven to be healthy, if done the right way.
