'Weight' a minute
Happy Saturday.
This story from the Times questions the virtues of weight lifting for amateur athletes--those training for the Olympics, hard-core runners and the like. Most agree that weight lifting aids in endurance. But some aren't so sure weight training lives up to the hype.
What do you think?
Me? I always tell people if I had to fight for my life, I'd try to do it with my legs. Upper body? Weak, which I think is true for most women.

We think it's ok to lift weights as long as it means you can lift us in and out of the limo faster ans better.
Otherwise, you are just wasting your time.
Hey, you make a fine point!
