people of ancient times had started it anyway, without any clue at all. Not only they were dieting properly,
but they were also exercising regularly, as is now recommended by the experts.
The ancient Greeks spent years training their bodies. Gymnastic exercises were very well appreciated, When the children came of certeain age they were
taught to follow a daily training schedual. After years of constant dieting and gymnastics,
the greeks finally admitted to themselves that being that hard on your body is not good for health.
