Trump thinks that exercising too much uses up the bodys finite energy

Source: Washington Post

President Trump reportedly eschews exercise because he believes it drains the body’s “finite” energy resources, but experts say this argument is flawed because the human body actually becomes stronger with exercise.

Even healthy lifestyle has its limits.

9. Because golf.

The less strokes the better. I hope he has a stroke.

10. OK, this is SO stupid I really need to see a verified quote. i mean come ON.

The article only says "reportedly". Giving up athletics after college really isnt the same thing.
Theres gotta be some statement out there from him or something, as much as he loves to talk.

[Ccarmona]

12. Seems Pretty Clear...from the WaPo story

"Trump’s views on exercise were mentioned in a New Yorker article this month and in “Trump Revealed,” The Washington Post’s 2016 biography of the president, which noted that Trump mostly gave up athletics after college because he “believed the human body was like a battery, with a finite amount of energy, which exercise only depleted." "

[Yupster]

23. Finally something I agree with Trump on

I pretty much gave up exercise after college too. I thought I was just fat and lazy. Now I know I am being a conservationist.

[7962]

29. I did see that, but its still a quote of another story.

Somewhere, whoever wrote that bio must have an actual quote from a conversation with trump
Then again, as another poster answered, it IS trump we're talking about!

[bagelsforbreakfast]

19. Remember this is Trump they're talking about... you can't fix stupid... n/m

[neeksgeek]

11. Somebody better tell him

That too much tweeting will cause his fingers to atrophy. Oh wait...

I've got a better one. How about, he better stop talking or he'll run out of words.

[Kleveland]

15. Well, his vocabulary is significantly diminished, compared to most of us!

At the rate that he is babbling and blabbing.... maybe he will run out of words before he dies!

(Ridiculously wishful thinking, I know)

[Deb]

13. A low-life battery condition

best excuse for LAZY living ever

14. Wonder which brand of foil he uses for the hat?

May need to buy stock in Alcoa....

18. By that logic, he should be sure not to have too much sex.

Wouldn't want to use up his modest resources Not that his wife seems to want anything to do with him at all.

And that exercise would use them up faster...Sweet lady.

38. My Grandmother

definitely didn't believe in too much exercise, but around age 95 we started keeping our mouths shut about it. We'd say she needed to walk more, to which she would say, "Why?" Indeed. She made it to 101.

[iamateacher]

39. Yes, my mother-in-law made it to 86!

Maybe there's something to that theory!

[milestogo]

28. Yeah, that's why those professional athletes look all used up.
