"Chasing a number blinds people from seeing all the progress they're making, it blinds them from enjoying that progress, and it often discourages them from continuing. Many regular folks would be happy losing 10 pounds of "weight" and seeing the scale go down. But a competitor would not be fooled so easily. She'd want to know what that weight was made of: glycogen, fat, water? And muscle loss would not be acceptable."

"Implementation of strength training at the workplace prevents deterioration of work ability among manual workers with chronic pain and disability exposed to forceful and repetitive job tasks. Thus, strength training performed at the workplace may in fact be regarded as a complex biopsychosocial intervention modality that reaches further than the specific physiological benefits of training per se." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24535014?dopt=Abstract

"Resistance training involving balls, platforms, inflated discs, suspension devices and other equipment to induce varying degrees of base and limb instability are very popular. Instability need not involve specialized devices as it can also be achieved by reducing the base of support (e.g. standing on one leg) or using unilateral training techniques (e.g. performing exercises with one limb rather than two together)." -David Behm, The Impact of Instability Resistance Training for Training and Health

"Although prolongation of life is a significant public health aim, at the same time the extended life should involve preservation of the capacity to live independently. Consequently, the identification of cost-effectiveness interventions to prevent frailty is one of the most important public health challenges... Regular exercise is the only strategy found to consistently prevent frailty and improve sarcopenia and physical function in older adults. Physical exercises increase aerobic capacity, muscle strength and endurance, by ameliorating aerobic conditioning and/or strength. In older patients, exercise and physical activity produce at least the same beneficial effects observed in younger individuals."
