Calories are burned through exercise though. Come on. You know how they're connected.
Unless you're an elite athlete, your body consumes more calories per day just to exist than you will burn through exercise.
It takes 30 minutes of decent exercise to work off the calories in a single can of pop. An bowl of chips can set you back an hour.
It's not even hard to eat 4 hours worth of exercise in a single afternoon snack.
That doesn't make exercise worthless for weight loss.
Of course not and that's not what they're saying. They're saying that trying to outrun a bad diet is never going to happen.
You could run a marathon every day and then still gain weight because you ate three birthday cakes, five burgers a bucket of fries and a whole pizza for breakfast , lunch and dinner.
Enablers hate admitting it, but weight is lost in the kitchen.
If you want to lose weight, eat less, if you want you can also get fit. That's the difference between being a healthy weight and being fit and healthy.
We are very high endurance animals, we don't burn much calories through exercice
yes, but they're still right. Of course CICO (Calories in, Calories out) is a thing, but the Calories out part (e.g. exercise) does not have as much leverage as he calories in part.
it's just so very easy to take in thousands of calories in 1-2 hours (think burger, fries, milkshake and alcoholic drinks). On the other hand, most people will struggle to burn more than say 800kcal/hr - and that's why we say weight is gained or lost in the kitchen.
If you're going to get that pedantic about it though, you may as well say weight is lost in the bathroom.
It's a matter of scale, that physical activity moves energy usage maybe 10 to 15 % during the exercise compared to sitting still. However, there's a lot of reasons to exercise for the sake of your pancreas and heart.
Besides, 84% of weight lost is by breathing it out, so not technically the bathroom.
Sure, but trying to lose weight without exercise is still hard mode. I've done it with and without the exercise part.
