Preventive Cardiologist Dr. Michael Ozner

Three major research studies show that bypass surgery doesn’t prevent heart attacks or death any more than conservative medical treatment. Further, research shows that angioplasties (with or without stents) don’t prevent heart attacks or deaths any more than conservative medical treatment. There is little research to contradict these well designed, peer reviewed studies published in prominent medical journals. Nevertheless, 1.5 million Americans a year have angioplasties or bypass surgery.

What if the fitness gurus are giving us terribly bad advice-advice that results in poor posture, back pain, losing muscle, and putting on weight when you exercise? Certified Professional Trainer Doug Splittgerber and Physical Therapist Debra Corbo say that is exactly what is happening. Overcoming their own health challenges, they developed a system of exercises that vastly improves posture and fully stretches muscles. They say that a lot of knee surgeries, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and other painful conditions can be prevented with proper exercise. Get ready for some very surprising challenges to what you think you know about fitness.

In Woody Allen’s movie Bananas, Wood Allen’s character Fielding Mellish has become El Presidente of San Marcos and is greeted at the airport by a US State Department interpreter. El Presidente speaks perfect English and the interpreter speaks broken English but still insists on interpreting. It reminds me of a lot of personal trainers. I think we all know how to count to twenty, the weight equipment isn’t that complicated, and if the trainer holds our hand while we are on the treadmill, it slows us down. Do we really need a personal trainer? Sports medicine physician Dr. Marc Paulsen and Personal Trainer Ashley Marriott, say in most cases we should dump the trainer and do it ourselves. Hence the title of their brand new book, Dump Your Trainer. The program looks at why you don’t need a personal trainer and how to do it yourself.
