Yup, in small quantites beer is good for you. Small is the hard part.

Alcohol is good for you too, in small quantities. Luckily I drive a bus for
a living so I don;t really drink that much.

A *huge* pant load of ****. Why do these people offer advice about
something they know nothing about?

now, now, to be fair i was just jumping in on the scatalogical bandwagon. i
dont agree with the "weight" advice that was given but it is pretty much
what is preached by the mainstream...the rest of Ed's advice was ok
though...and he did preface it with saying he didnt know much about it...

Why? Like I said it should burn more calories which is the whole point.And
I'm jogging on a soccer pitch. I know for a fact a lot of athletes use
wieght when then excercise. What about soldiers who march with full packs
all day and night?

I've got good balance for someone my size and I jog on soft ground - I tried
it last night and I'm only a bit sore.

wine...the goodness is in the grapes. you get the same benefit from grape
juice.

You've already got enough dead weight. And you're already slow, inefficient,
and injury prone enough.

That's a non-sequiter. Good balance or not, using the weights isn't a good
strategy.

So if you're finding it too easy, speed up until your heart rate increases. No
hand weights required. I don't think you'll need to run that fast for it to
happen.

You're not getting it. When you start, you alternate 30 seconds run with 30
rest. Do that for half an hour. As your fitness improves, you can do 40
running to 20 walking, etc.

You can burn more calories by increasing the pace.

Never heard of a good distance runner do this. The athletes who do this
probably aren't very bright.

Those guys have high injury rates. And they're not fatasses.

I can're increase the pace until I get shape which is why I need to increase
the effort.

Well I have met a few on misc.free.wieghts who use wieghts and are not very
bright.

Well being in the army and being out on a soccer for half and hour are
different. I can stop when I want before I get injured.

That would be 'non-sequitur'. Us bus drivers get to read the comics every day :eek:)

So when will I find time to do wieghts then. Can I lose 36 lbs just by running half and hour a day? How long will this take if I don;t change anything else? How about running in boots instead to add weight? Maybe if I wet my tack suit before I go out!

Well you're either a nicely clever troll or too stupid to live. Either
way, into the killfile with you.
