Last weekend we aired the Kids’ Day edition of Focus on Your Health. Here are a couple of family friends, Alexis and Delaney, taking us to the break. The tune is “Major Rip-off,” by the mighty Kangaralien.
I have no idea who Rick is.

And so you might be able to walk more without requiring pumping more blood and sending more oxygen. If you can have the most economical way to walk and still be stable, you have that result that you want, which is maintaining or increasing your function, without having more resources.”
