Let me offer a different, firsthand perspective .

As a kid in the 60's and teen in the 70''s, we got tons more exercise. We played outside from morning till dusk. There were only 3 major tv channels geared for adults. I didn't get cable until I was almost 30 and bought my first tv.

As a 22+ year football coach, one of my roles was strength training and diet. The first thing that might surprise a person today is caloric intake. In 1900 (100 years ago) the average per capita intake was 3500 calories a day. By 2000, here comes the surprise, the average per capita intake in the USA was 3800 calories. Looking at our physical health, you woulda thought 5000+

The two big changes I lived through. Pre 1980's, work was manual labor. Not anymore. Work was 16 hours. Then 12 hours. Then 10 hours. Then 8 hours a day.

In the end, our bodies need both low and high intensity exercise, everyday. It's call evolution, and our modern on demand society has only been around 75 years. Calories don't care. They are either converted to energy or stored. It's that simple.

The obesity/diabetes etc crisis began in the early 1980's. That is when cable TV got hooked up nationwide. Noe, it's devices and gaming. Kids today do Not or could not play 10, 12 hours a day. They do not have the stamina b/c they sit around to much, including my twins. Every chart I have ever seen at conditioning seminars is hockey stick up beginning the in 1980's.

BTW, I am in big time on ENDV. What a breakthrough, IF..... seen a lot of IF's in my time

Happy squats and power cleans! lol
