It's Never Too Soon to Exercise, Fatso!

So get off your asses, you little couch potatoes!

My kids are currently lean and (particularly) mean, but one of my many fears is that they'll somehow turn into one of the fat kids in school, and I've watched enough reality television like More to Love and The Bigggest Loser to know that being morbidly obese can create some pretty bad memories — who knew?

So NPR ran a news story about how weightlifting, when done correctly and not as an attempt to break the under-7-year-old deadlift record, can be beneficial for young children.

What makes this story ironic is that very few NPR listeners have ever set foot in a gym.
