    Live forever!

    My company's got TVs all over the place in our building that have things like exercise and diet tips, as well as generic company information.

    Yesterday, I saw one that said "Studies have shown that every hour of exercise increases your longevity 2 hours".

    So, if I exercise 12 hours a day, I'll never die? See you at the gym!

    (hehe - you guys thought this was going to be an Alex Chiu thing again, didn't you?)

    OK, maybe - but what's exercise, really? Technically, since I'm not eating while typing this, I'm burning more calories than I'm taking in, so I'm losing weight, right? Does that constitute exercise?

    good logic... I'm down with that

    is it really a 1:2 ratio? Cuz that really blows goats...

    It is imposible to exercise for 12 hours 7 days a week, you would be to tired. Further more that doesn't take into acount the severe stress on your joints which you recieve from over execising. Lastly that isn't really that great, execise one day each day for an hour and you will ownly live 3 years longer. Of corse this just means on average. I'm sure going from 0 hours to 1 hour of exercise would be a lot more helpful then going from 23 to 24 hours.
