"Jogging is king

I recently had a client tell me about advice she received from a very expensive 
personal trainer, whilst in New York. This "trainer" told her that running an 
hour on a treadmill is the best way to burn fat and become slim, well spending 
a month in a Somalian village will also help you lose fat and become slim, this 
does not mean you should do it. This trainer must have fallen off a treadmill 
and hit her head a couple of times because that's dumb, dangerous and lazy 
advice. Why is running on a treadmill for an hour stupid.

(1) Why jog inside when you can go out side. The air in a air conditioned 
building is 10x as worse than the air out side. If you live in a city, think 
about it.

(2) If you are a woman and want your boobs and butt to be heading south, jog on 
a treadmill. Most women don't wear a sports bra, which means every time you 
land your stretching the connective that holds breast tissue in place. Also 
these forces can place a stress to the upper back and neck muscles, causing 
strain and leading to bad posture. The butt muscles are switched off whist on a 
treadmill because the treadmill does the work for the butt. The glutes like the 
breast tissue is bouncing around, your butt will not tone if that's happening.

(3) Because the treadmill is predominately a hip flexor exercise it has the 
potential to cause hyperactivity of the hip flexors which can lead to 
inhibition (switching off) of the glutes, hamstrings and lower abs. Which means 
for you less tone and a increase likelihood of injury to occur. Every time you 
land you're placing between 2.5 to 7x your body weight of kinetic forces 
throughout your body. If you have bad posture, weak glutes and internal 
rotation of the knees (which is the case for most women) you are opening 
yourself to problems of the low back, hips, knees and ankles.

(4) No animal with the slightest intelligence jogs. It just does not happen in 
nature. When was the last time your saw an animal out in nature stop what it 
was doing throw on some jogging bottoms and go for a grueling run, NEVER. Now 
why do you suppose that is.

Our bodies have evolved over millions of years to perform certain tasks, 
jogging is not one of them. Sprint, fight, lift and climb your way to fitness. 
You should note athletes that perform the aforementioned as part of there sport 
usually have very lean, toned and strong bodies i.e gymnasts, sprinters, 
martial artists, rock climbers. Also on a side note if any of you have ever had 
a friend or relative join the Army, take note of how they look when they get 
back after 6 weeks of training. They sprint, walk around with back packs that 
weigh 30-40 and even 50kg, climb, crawl, fight, lift, body weight exercise such 
as press ups and burpees. I know they jog to but it's not as much as you think 
and they mostly walk long distances out in the fresh air with heavy back packs 
on."
