News - How Exercise Builds You Up

Personally, I have to exercise several times a day just for peace of mind... sure it works better with some 'belt n braces' approach... 8)

Not quite sure what you mean about the belt and braces remark, but when I used to go to the gym regularly - two to three times a week - I always felt so much better for it. Now with my bad back I'm not able, just manage to keep on top of my general housework.
