I am a frequent reader of anything exercise related and I hate how so many companies to try fool the uneducated into buying their crap. I wont mention the company, but I actually received an email this morning that said in the subject line-
Why exercise almost ALWAYS makes you FATTER! OMG, this crap really drives me crazy. So all you who want to lose a few pounds and are exercising to get there, this company figured out your problem! Stop exercising and just start taking their magic pills and you can sit back and relax and just wait to look great! Your perfect body is just around the corner. Maybe I should read the article because they might have combined their magical elixir with Nachos and melted cheese. Mmmmm.
I remember several years ago there was a commercial on television and they were actually selling pills called "Exercise in a bottle." I thought I was watching a spoof add on Saturday Night Live, until I paid more attention and realized they were serious! Ugh!
