New Govt Exercise Guidelines--Quote of the Day

“We don’t want the kids in the gym lifting weights.”

Rear Adm. Penelope Royall, deputy assistant secretary for health. in a Yahoo article (Yahoo | Mail, Weather, Search, Politics, News, Finance, Sports & Videos) on new exercise guidelines.

I don’t think 7 year old kids should be lifting weights either. I think you missed the point of the article. They are referring to kids; as in little kids, not teenagers.

kids have been “lifting weights” for a long long long…long time like helping out on the farm back in the day, yet i don’t see them growing up deformed or crippled

the human body can resist weight, what an earth-shattering fact
