There are six components of wellness: proper weight and diet, proper exercise, breaking the smoking habit, control of alcohol, stress management and periodic exams.

I don't criticize weight training - as long as it is not a substitute for aerobic training.

The reason I exercise is for the quality of life I enjoy.

Since then, I have not missed five consecutive days in getting some type of aerobic exercise, mostly jogging.
