Yes, we all die and there's no getting out of this life alive. Your longevity is well within your control. I'm often asked what kinds of exercise is better, cardio or weights. And does it matter the order? Does this matter with longevity? Do your choices make it possible to cheat the Grim Reaper from knocking on your door before you're ready?
In this episode I share you with a study about the impact of lifting weights compared to cardio alone. For you cardio junkies, you may want to pump some iron. For you dumbbell only heads, you may want to walk around the block. If you don't do anything, maybe it's a good start time start. Either way, you need to find out which is best to cheat the Grim Reaper!
