My suggestion is to refer to the exercise specialist: physical therapists, exercise physiologists. My GP doesn’t practice cardiology; she refers to the specialist. #exerciseismedicine and we should rely on providers with this expertise to prescribe and manage it. xitter.cf/insightsbs/status/1014…
"In medical school we get taught nothing about exercise ..." Dr Michael Mosley says. Do GP's need more training when it comes to prescribing exercise? #InsightSBS

Can you name all 59 women who came forward against Cosby? Can you name half of them? Can you name 5? Would you recognize them out of context? Do you want an autograph? Cool so we agree that women don’t make rape accusations to become famous.
