    Overall good info. However, I am curious as to what support Alan Aragon and others have for the statement that you can get similar health benefits from weight training as you can from cardio? I've tried googling this, but all I've found is this claim being made with no scientific support, and it seems to be used more often as a justification used by those who dislike cardio.

    I personally dislike running on a treadmill so I do hill sprints and prowler work.

    I will say however that when doing any compound lift at or above 80% I am panting for breath and often have to sit after a hard set. If that isn't my heart racing a mile a minuet I don't know what is. Try it yourself.

    I am not a proponent of fad workouts, but I did like the fact way back in the day that Billy said in the commercial "It's not easy. It's gonna take your will. It's gonna take your desire."
