The battle over whether cardio or weightlifting is more important has raged fierce and furious, but a recent study says that cardio comes out ahead.

Eating might be giving you a high – literally, according to a new study that showed rats fed high-fat diets produced a response similar to what happens when you use marijuana. (Interestingly, they also tested sugar and protein, but didn’t find the same reaction.) The chemical the high-fat diet produced helps regulate mood, stress and appetite.

The bootcamp trend is heating up. Though it may not sound appealing, the results are nothing to quibble with, which is why these classes are popping up everywhere.
