The Secret to Slowing Middle Age Spread...
Dear Reader,
Most of the research we see today is focused on weight loss, but little attention is paid to preventing weight gain in the first place. Now that's changing too. Anyone who exercises regularly during their younger years, especially women, will be rewarded later on by not having to face the dreaded middle age weight gain according to research appearing in the December 15, 2010 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
We're not talking an occasional workout here. The amount of exercise needed to prevent the mid-life weight gain had to be about 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity a week... things like running, walking briskly, basketball, exercise classes or everyday chores like housework or yard work.
Experts are seeing that it's important to start young... to stick with a pattern of living an active, healthy lifestyle over many years. This doesn't mean you can't make a change and see the benefits when you're older, it will just be harder for you to keep the weight off than it is for someone who has been active all along.
The research itself focused on 3,554 men and women from 18 to 30 years old when the study started and followed them for the next 20 years. The subjects lived in one of four places in the U.S. - Chicago, IL, Birmingham AL, Minneapolis, MN and Oakland, CA.
The team asked participants questions on how often they did 13 different moderate to vigorous activities. Things like jogging, housework, construction or playing sports. The highest activity level was defined as 150 (or more) minutes of exercise a week.
Twenty years of follow up is an impressive accomplishment, one not seen in many weight related studies these days.
After adjusting for things like age and energy intake, men who kept a high activity
level gained an average of 5.7 fewer pounds. Women with a high activity level
gained 13.4 fewer pounds than their less than active counterparts.
When it came
to waistline measurements, high activity men gained 3.1 fewer centimeters (1.2
inches) around the middle each year; women 3.8 fewer centimeters (1.5 inches)
a year.
The researchers point out that subjects at all activity levels gained
weight over the study period - those who were active just didn't gain as much.
Women especially gained less weight if they made exercise a habit.
Those who were moderately or inconsistently active generally had a similar outcome in terms of weight to those who did little daily activity.

The Secret to Slowing Middle Age Spread... Continued...
The type of activity probably isn't as important, researchers say, as is the
intensity level and how often you do it. It's got to be something you can maintain
over the long haul... day in, day out.
The difference in weight gain between men and women may be physiological. Females
have children and go through menopause, men do not. Menopause is a time when
it's natural for women to gain some weight, and we may need to approach it as
if you're training for a marathon.
Start slow and keep at it... over 20 years you can keep yourself from gaining
weight. Staying healthy, according to Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, director of women
and heart disease at Lenox Hill Hospital, is about maintaining a lifestyle, not
just flipping a switch.
The take home message here is to stay active... not just for a bit but as a lifestyle
choice.
To your good health,
