Is exercising harming them? Why apply such a high standard to something is healthy especially when western populations are sedentary? I think there should be a measured approach.

Exercise usually hurts more that lying around, even when you're not depressed. So yes, I think it can harm.

What gave you that idea?

Experience.. if we're not talking about a leisurely walk or light garden work, there is always some pain in exercise. (These endorphins people talk about.. how long do you have to run for? Maybe if one gets more fit? )

There is joy in moving (and good feelings afterwards) too, but if you are unable to feel that, then only the boredom and pain remains.

Some people use the word “exercise” to mean any physical activity, and others use it to mean pushing your body near its limits. Lots of the bewilderment that happens in these discussions is between people that define the word different ways and don’t realize it.

> Trump believed the human body was like a battery, with a finite amount of energy, which exercise only depleted. So he didn't work out.

Hi,

Could you please delete all my comments from the site?

Idiots downvoted me.

The link only demonstrates the absurdity of your previous statement. Unless that's what you are going for?
