A new study finds that push-up capacity may be more important and predictive of a future

caravasker event compared to your LDL cholesterol levels.

Now I know you're thinking Mike, you're a meathead, you're focused on exercise, where's the science?

Let's review the science that was published in

the Journal of the American Medical Association. The title of this study, it was a 10-year

follow-up study in firefighters, over a thousand firefighters, is titled Association between Push Up Exercise Capacity

and Future Kravasca Events Among Active Adult Men.

This is a really interesting study.

So essentially the investigators tracked a group of firemen in Indiana

1100 some odd firefighters of various age ranges between 18 and I think 60 years of age

and they found that push-up capacity to exhaustion was

linked strongly linked with future car massacre related events over the

course of a 10-year follow-up period which is really interesting but even more

interesting is

LDL cholesterol between the different groups that had low

exercise capacity and higher risk for developing a car rescue event

was not statistically significant between the different groups,

but exercise capacity was,

they looked at body mass index,

they looked at age, blood pressure,

blood glucose, as well as triglycerides

were all statistically significant.
