Don’t feel like exercising today?  Or EVER?  We’ve got your brand new excuse.  You’re not exercising because you’re worried it could be BAD FOR YOU.

A new study out of Louisiana State University . . . that contradicts every other study or piece of common sense . . . found that for about 10% of people, exercise was actually UNHEALTHY.

Those people saw negative effects on either blood pressure, insulin levels, or “bad” cholesterol after exercise.  About 7% of people actually got worse on two of those.  All of those can increase the risk of heart disease and strokes.

The study authors aren’t exactly sure how this is possible . . . and they’re worried it could actually become an excuse for people to avoid exercising.  But their findings are their findings, so they reported what they found.

Before you decide you’re one of the 10% who shouldn’t exercise, you might want to wait for another study that backs this one up.  Because, ya know, every other study ever . . . doesn’t.
