Aug 7, 2017 at 6:14 comment added Dennis Haarbrink While I totally agree with your answer, I strongly contend the first two arguments about properly designed programs. I guess being designed by someone with coaching experience could be a requirement, but I don't see the reason why that has to be in a professional capacity. And 'Have tens of thousands of successful people backing them up' is just ridiculous. This means that any tailor made program cannot be 'properly designed' by your definition.

Nov 6, 2014 at 4:17 comment added Chelonian If you can cite evidence for free weight training and actual longevity, that would be great. I based my "routine" on some really cursory looks at a paper that showed high MET activities in men was correlated with lower all cause mortality (see ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19454641), and what I do gets up to I think 10-12 METs at times. The treadmill stuff I do is no joke--try it and see.
