The research, which was recently published in the journal Body Image, found that although both activities improved subjects» overall mood and body image, the women assigned to an eight - week program of aerobic exercise on a treadmill or elliptical machine had less
anxiety about their physique and thought they looked better than those who focused on resistance training.
Now I know that there can be some real
anxiety about missing a day, a week or even a month of exercise — like it's going to turn us into a total lump of fat, or reduce all of our gains — and that to maintain our
physique we MUST find a way to exercise some part of their body so we can minimize the «damage» to our appearance that must surely happen as a result of NOT EXERCISING.
