No I don't...I take my doctors advise but I also exercise and eat well because I enjoy it.
However, in my job, I analyze large medical datasets. You will understand if I get a bit pedantic about such things.
Doing some strength training is a probable plus on several fronts with few risks. However if I am advising doctors or the presidential physical fitness council to recommend strength training vs endurance training vs focusing on diet on an institutional level I need to look at the evidence for each with more rigor.
