Time to get moving
A message from Editor in Chief Marc B. Garnick, M.D.
"I can't exercise because..." So begins the refrain I often hear from patients in my clinic when I ask about physical activity. Then come well-worn excuses like, "I don't have time," "I don't know how," and "I'm too old." If you find yourself offering similar explanations, now is the time to stop procrastinating and get moving.
