Great article on metabolic syndrome. The bottomline is small workout 3 times a week should be compulsory for all those who lead a sedantadry lifestyle and this number in rapidly increasing thanks to all the modern ameneties that are at our disposable. We don't have to move much do we - entertainment, music, games, booking tickets, banking or even dating- all u need is a television and internet or now jus the internet as a medium.
