Every day, we see television shows that promote diets and exercise regimens that promise to help you shed vast amounts of weight in a short period of time.  What the paid talent on talk shows and infomercials don't tell you is that there is an inherent danger in "getting in shape."  Read the headlines and you will hear about people who injure themselves or even die in their attempt to firm up their figure.  On today's show we will speak with personal trainer and author Dana Gore about the promise and the perils of shaping up.
