[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I agree with the poster who has orthorexia. She has all of her life to workout at a gym. At this age, I'd hope my kid could be enjoying an activity or exercising in a leisurely way. It seems too young to me. A sport or dance class sure but cardio machines at the gym? I say this as an adult who exercises daily and always has. As much as I appreciate being fit and in shape, I often think it would serve me to be a little less committed to my fitness. Everything in moderation. Life has so much to offer. If she has energy to burn, how about something more fun and stimulating than a treadmill?[/quote] Dont most gyms have yoga, spinning, Pilates, Zumba, etc? Also weight training at a young age<18 creates a life long habit. You need to teach kids a way to stay healthy they can take into adulthood and most sports are not realistic.[/quote]
