The Science of Exercise by TIME
A compilation of articles about exercise ad the science of the effects of exercise. Glad I read it.

No surprise that taking a more holistic approach to maintaining your health involved a change and effort in every aspect of your life from Diet,Exercise and Lifestyle in order to increase longevity and overall quality of life. HIIT exercises and strength training form a more complete regimen. Their coupled benefits can stave off common diseases to the American public ranging from CHD, Mood disorders, Diabetes etc.

Good summary of current thinking on exercise

This book provides a good summary of what's the latest findings on exercise. It will be great if it can point me to a more detailed plan on the key exercises to achieve total fitness.

Exercise

Really good information on why exercise is so important. It’s good not only for your physical health, but also your mental health.

Interesting and well organized. Wish it went a little bit more into the anatomy behind exercise in addition to health benefits.

I found this collection of articles describing the results of scientific research on various aspects of leading a more active life to be very interesting. I enjoyed learning about what keeps one motivated, what types of exercise one should do, what effect exercise has on the body and different and alternative methods of exercise. These articles made me realize how much time I’ve wasted when I could have been (dancin', yeah! dancin', yeah! - (sorry)) improving my health through exercise. It also motived me to devote more of my time to walking and to strength-training. Got to keep that heart pumping and those bones and muscles strong! On a side note, I had a my first vascular screening this week and got to see my heart and the blood flowing in and out of it for the first time. It was awesome! I plan on keeping it as healthy as possible for as long as possible.
