As you probably figure, I am in pretty fair agreement with the
"anti-aerobics" FAQ

I haven't finished "Lights Out" yet, but the authors say that paleo humans
only exercised strenuously when running for their lives, or when trying to
kill something.  So they rarely experienced extreme exercise.

They feel that modern humans who exercise three or four times a week at the
club doing strenuous activities are only harming themselves in the long term
by raising - and keeping up - their cortisol levels.  This, the authors say,
is harmful to the heart and leads to degenerative diseases.

I can find a quote if you'd like.
