"We weren't surprised at the changes per se," Dr. Nigel A. Spry from the University of Western Australia, Crawley, told Reuters Health. "However, the relative sparing of muscle in the leg supported one of our hypotheses, that exercise, even in the testosterone-depleted male, could reduce the negative consequences of androgen suppression." Dr. Spry and colleagues examined alterations in whole-body and regional bone, lean, and fat mass in 72 men receiving intermittent androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer. Whole-body lean mass and bone mass decreased significantly after treatment, the researchers report, whereas fat mass increased. Resistance training, they suggest, might be a good way to preserve body composition

Every man is the builder of a temple, called his body, to the god he worships, after a style purely his own, nor can he get off by hammering marble instead. We are all sculptors and painters, and our material is our own flesh and blood and bones.
