Very rare picture of Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn had a handicap if she wanted to be proficient at archery for lack of full drawing ability.

I was looking at a news video on the confusion of how many calories you expend on any one of the cardio machines that has a electronic totalizator. Do you realize that there is a big difference in values from one machine to another and from one gym to the other. NO SHIT! Some people actually put stock in the values they see as they train, while others are too busy watching ESPN.


I have seen,as a trainer, club members jump on a treadmill day after day for months and never loose a lb nor little improvement in there cardiac capacity. Why? They are not training using a personal heart rate monitor based on their age and current capacity, which is the good way to monitor exercise efficiency. Calories burned is junk science and should be based on body composition measurements or exercise intensity.



Have a nice day suffering and remember the mission is sacred.
