After much thought, I’ve returned to my daily dancing, on the reasoning that (1) I missed it like crazy; (2) I can’t find anything despite looking very hard to back up Schwarzbein’s assertion that more than 20 minutes twice weekly of aerobic exercise amounts to overexcercising for someone in my metabolic state; & (3) Schwarzbein is an endocrinologist, not an exercise physiologist.
So unless/until I can find some confirmation for her assertion, including my own experience if I’m wrong right now, I’m back to my daily aerobic workout, along with weight training & flexibility training.
The name of this post is, by the way, a quote attributed to Emma Goldman (but is more likely a paraphrase of something she said than a direct quote).
