Am I reading this wrong....the article says:

"In this study, we have compared a marker of skeletal muscle regeneration of athletes with exercise-associated chronic fatigue, a condition labeled the "fatigued athlete myopathic syndrome" (FAMS)"

Do all endurance athletes suffer from this or is this a specific condition?

Science swore up and down that formula was better for babies, we were ruining our knees by running and that homosexuality was a disease.  If they can't report something controversial they lose their funding and have no jobs.  Results that use the words "support", "indicate", or "suggest" means that they haven't proven anything.

Yet more evidence the "couch and bon-bons" crowd can point to as an excuse for why they don't exercise.  If it shortens my life, so be it.  I'd rather do this than sit on the couch all day.

thndrcloud - 2010-08-11 12:50 PM Science swore up and down that formula was better for babies, we were ruining our knees by running and that homosexuality was a disease.  If they can't report something controversial they lose their funding and have no jobs.  Results that use the words "support", "indicate", or "suggest" means that they haven't proven anything.

A lot of times it's the popular articles that journalists write that sensationalize science and stir up controversy, rather than the scientific articles themselves.  Also, science is a self-correcting system - does science get everything right the first time?  No, but eventually we figure it out.

Your statement that only controversy gets funding is ridiculous and over-generalized.  Don't knock science.  Science is awesome.

Maybe all those emails offering to add a little extra length are referring to my telomeres?

LittleCat - 2010-08-11 12:40 PM I plan to skid into my grave with a bunch of road rash....or maybe I'll run until I collapse into it....or jump into the ocean and swim until I become fish food....

X2, or how about dying just after you win at Kona!

Announcer: "What are you going to do now that you won Ironman Kona?"
Me: "I'm pretty tired, so i'm just gonna go lay in that grave for a while."

 who would want to live forever? .


who would want to live to 150?  ask anybody who is 149.


i bet people 1000 years ago would have said "Who would want to live to be 50?"  I'm guessing there are a few BT's that are 49 and wouldn't mind making it.

Even if you don't want to live forever, it would be nice to have that option. IMHO


My mother who will be 88 in December told her PCP "I don't want to live to be a 100"  His reply "Sorry to tell you Betty but you will see at least 100 if not 101"  She is in incredible shape.  Walks and swims everyday!  Comes from good Swedish stock!

Wonder if FAMS is a form of overtraining?
They should have studied healthy endurance athletes before making their generalized conclusion.

I see a lot of older people doing marathons and IM's....they seem in pretty good shape to me, relative to their non-endurance peers.

I'm not giving up my six pack !! (and I don't mean beer)

Telomere length and replication affect CELLULAR senescence.

ORGANISMAL senescence is a different matter, and its relationship with cellular senescence is a fascinating topic of research ...

one area of which has to do with transplants, and the nature of the donated organ taking on certain cellular characteristics of the recipient ...
