Came across this article. Explains it very well as to why strength training and a well balanced diet are important.

It is a little long, but a good read.

    Thanks for posting, though I don't understand why he's saying weight training classes "don't count" as strength training. Yes, there's cardio in them but they're interval training...isn't that what is recommended?
