Exercise Deficit Disorder and Dr. Avery Faigenbaum

A couple of media links were sent my way that reminded me of my good friend Avery Faigenbaum and the talks/work he did with our organization on his visit to Columbus in May.

Here is Avery on YouTube talking about the issues surrounding pediatric resistance training, and here he and I are discussing the same issue on a special podcast known as Pediacast.

Or you can go here to check out both the video, the podcast, and grab further detailed information on how to safely have your child pursue resistance training.  With supervision, this activity can be done as early as you'd consider getting your child into any organized sport.

For all of you out there inspired by the Olympics and see visions of glory in your kids, or for the many more of you who simply want to prep your children for a life of healthy, safe activity, you can go ahead and get them started in resistance training with appropriate supervision.  The links above will help.

To your kids' health!  (and yours, too).
