| Q: | I am already thin, why do I need to exercise? |
| A: | It is very important for thin people to exercise as well, because of the health benefits. You can be thin and very unhealthy and unfit. Thin people could have high cholesterol, hypertension, diabetes, and even excess body fat! Looking thin is no indication of being fit. Also, thin sedentary women are more prone to getting osteoporosis later in life if they are not involved in a strength training program. Inactive Asian women are particularly at a higher risk. |
