All this time I was feeling guilty about NOT going to the gym even though I’m dieting,  come to find out it could have KILLED ME! Thankfully you can’t argue with scientific studies (yeah right…) because the newest one has a wonderful conclusion.  A new study out of Louisiana State University  found that for about 10% of people, exercise was actually UNHEALTHY. Those people saw negative effects on either blood pressure, insulin levels, or “bad” cholesterol after exercise.  About 7% of people actually got worse on two of those.  All of those can increase the risk of heart disease and strokes. The study authors

aren’t exactly sure how this is possible and they’re worried it could actually become an excuse for people to avoid exercising (WOO HOO!).  But their findings are their findings, so they reported what they found. Now obviously this is just one study and we should probably wait until there is another one that backs it up…for now, I’m staying perfectly still on my bed and watching Big Bang Theory repeats.
