NEW YORK - Here's a couch potato's dream: What if a drug could help you gain some of the benefits of exercise without working up a sweat? Scientists reported Thursday that there is such a drug — if you happen to be a mouse.

Sedentary mice that took the drug for four weeks burned more calories and had less fat than untreated mice. And when tested on a treadmill, they could run about 44 percent farther and 23 percent longer than untreated mice.

Just how well those results might translate to people is an open question. But someday, researchers say, such a drug might help treat obesity, diabetes and people with medical conditions that keep them from exercising.

"We have exercise in a pill," said Ron Evans, an author of the study. "With no exercise, you can take a drug and chemically mimic it."

Don't they already make pills like that, that they market towards bodybuilders?
It's called a thermogenic or fat burner?

this actually improves your performance
like running every day will improve your run times and endurance
this pill does that while you sit on your ass watching tv
take a few pills,
then next week run faster and further

it will be the new "performance enhancing drug" for all the pro athelets

as long as there are million dollar contracts you will never stop cheating
