Lifting Weights Just Once a Week Can Cut Your Heart Disease Risk in Half
It doesn’t need to be a marathon session to reap the heart-healthy benefits, either.

Some research shows low- to moderate-intensity resistance training helps reduce total cholesterol. Other research shows all kinds of weight workouts help with total and LDL cholesterol, but high intensity is needed to boost HDL cholesterol. The same review found people who burn out on cardio workouts can still keep LDL cholesterol on the downswing if they substitute weight training.

And the quality of their lives were probably better as well, even in those later years. Regular exercise is good for joints, muscles, body posture, blood circulation, breathing and endorphin production. Regular exercisers also find that they have more energy and look and feel younger.

Makes a lot of sense, thanks Alduous and Sir Neil.

Although I believe that one's health is determined by their psychic makeup (non-cosmetics reference here), I work-out everyday about 30 minutes and take another 30 minutes brisk walk. They are remnants from my former me, remnants which I'm not yet ready to let go.

There's consensus about exercise being an investment for ten years' time. Do the things that the body was designed for; try to give the body a full workout. Hatha Yoga seems to aim at this but aerobic exercise is helpful to strengthen the heart (while being sensible about it) - dance, swimming are aerobic, brisk walking to a lesser extent.
