In a variety of places, I've read about studies (yeah, I know) concluding that we benefit from exercise, but the greatest benefit comes from what I would consider to be a really tiny amount. Beyond that point, you might be getting stronger, but won't necessarily be measurably healthier.
According to studies.
I'm like, yeah, right. I think part of the problem is that there's a public health angle, which is that you have to come up with guidelines that people will actually follow. Those are what get printed in the paper.
On the other hand, I'm not taking my chances. While my doctor congratulates me on how much exercise I'm getting, I'm still striving for more.
