The Wear and Tear Theory

The Wear and Tear Theory was first introduced by Dr. August Weismann, a German biologist in 1882. He believed aging occurred when the body and its cells were damaged by overuse and abuse. The major organs of the body such as the liver, stomach, kidneys, skin and so on are worn down by toxins in our diet and in the environment, by excessive intake of fat, sugar, caffeine, alcohol and nicotine, by the ultra-violet rays of the sun and by the many other physical and emotional stresses to which we subject our bodies. Simply using the organs over time wears them out even if you never touch a cigarette or have

a glass of wine and stayed out of the sun, etc. Abuse just wears them out quicker. He also believed it takes place on the cellular level.

You re already out of shape, you just want to stay home and get slim on your own and then go to the gym to socialize, drink healthy fruit drinks and show off your newly toned body and impress everyone. Keep dreaming buddy, this is not going to happen.

If you work out on your own to begin with there s just you and after a hard day at work that exercise tape will look mighty unfriendly and really it s easy to
