Running burns away muscle, not just fat, which is why I don't use it as a form of exercise.

Everything in moderation. Those negative effects only come when you're doing things like training for marathons. Otherwise you can have the benefits without doing yourself harm.

:thumbsup: Although I also think that over the long haul running will hurt your knees, I've never heard of it really damaging tendons, or ligaments. If your legs are working properly, running really shouldn't have an adverse effect on anything, unless you are doing a marathon. Also, avoid running on hard surfaces (like pavement) and you're pretty much golden.

of course running's good for us. the question is: is sitting on our asses eating burgers all day good for us? truth is, if americans learned to run a couple miles a week, this country would weigh tens of billions of pounds less.

Source? Study?
I currently run for my cardio workouts, so I am curious.

This is completely made up. Total lie. You will gain muscle mass by running unless you starve yourself and run 100+ miles a week.
