People used to get exercise regularly, whether they liked it or not, because they had to walk to get places. Now everyone is either sitting in cars or at computers. I am sure this is why Americans are so fat: All work and no exercise, unless they're of the type who like to work hard, then kill themselves at the gym.

In the gym. Once the initial shock passes and you learn to love pain, [they call it the 'good pain'], the benefits are huge. Then you don't calorie restrict at all, which is stupidity, nor do you consume any sorts of drugs. You consume huge amounts of water and basic foodstuffs and burn it off by the end of the day.
