DIET AND WEIGH
Most of the joggers who are overweight are reasonable for talking about and obsessing
with their weight. Since many people start jogging to lose weight (perhaps you’re one of
them), it is not surprising that body size is important. More and more people are on a diet,
50% of the women and close to 25% of the men in the US are watching what they eat.
Body weight is the second most talked among joggers - heart disease and high blood
pressure are the first! There are many factors that affect your weight. They include: body
type, diet, exercise level, sex and age. What may be an “ideal" weight for you at the age
of 27 may not be ideal when you are 54. And your ideal weight will probably be different
during racing season when in a specific training phase.
1. What are most of joggers who are overweight worried about?
A. Their weight B. Their height
C. Their jogging D. The distance
2. To many people, _________
