As I mentioned before, I never intended to place one activity over another WRT importance. However, if you are an old person that has been less than optimally active during your life (which is the subject of the video in the OP), then it seems from the results that strength training is crucial and that's why I posted here in lieu of the Training and Nutrition forum. These people cannot do power training, which I'm a firm believer in, but it would be dangerous for those people.

My only intention was to show how important strength training is and the body needs more than simple cardio, but that's not to say, in the big picture, that strength training is more important than cardio.

I wish all I had to do was ride a bike and stay strong and healthy into the 80's, but that would only result in under-use injuries.
