ARTICLE ON LOSING WEIGHT

  • There was an article that discussed whether brisk walking or working out was a better way to lose weight
    • In part, depends on what you do at the gym
  • They did not even touch on diet
    • Exercise is a poor way to lose weight!

BRISK WALKING VS. WEIGHTLIFTING TO LOSE WEIGHT

  • Bottom line is, having a good diet is necessary ALSO to lose weight
  • Walking, you might burn more fat calories and maybe make it to zone 2
    • Trying to keep up with Andy will make you lose 300 calories
      • However if you go eat a bag of M&Ms after, you’ve negated the calories you’ve lost
      • Calorie in calorie out doesn’t work so that is why exercise doesn’t work as well as diet to lose weight
    • Walking is good and heart healthy
  • In your 30s, you start to lose pounds of muscle, so weightlifting can be good to help this
  • Depending on what the weightlifting is, you may burn more fat calories
  • At the end of the day, neither will really MAKE you lose weight
    • Do both to stay healthy and help weight loss
