Text Article Wednesday! "Exercise Genes Not Jeans: Is exercise capacity predetermined?"

Do you wonder why some people seem to be more prone to exercise than others? Check out the article by Mr. Josh Avila, M.S. titled "Exercise Genes Not Jeans: Is exercise capacity predetermined?" to see how your DNA may be affecting your fitness level.

Improvements in cardio-respiratory fitness made by increasing levels of physical activity have been shown to reduce the level of all-cause mortality regardless of baseline fitness levels."
