Exercising can help you lose weight because it helps you create that calorie deficit that you need to drop body fat. But the irrefutable truth is that exercise alone will not help you lose weight.
Exercise burns calories, but not as much as people think. When you consider how many calories you burn in a day, exercise burns very little. And it takes 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐭 of time and effort to burn even a few calories.
A full hour of intense exercise may only burn 400-500 calories for a lot of people. On the flip side, it’s easy to eat hundreds or thousands of calories in even a few minutes. But it would take hours of exercise to offset those calories. If you are not changing your diet and reducing your calorie intake, exercise alone won’t help you much. No amount of exercise can make up for a poor or high-calorie diet. You’ve got to have both (calorie reduction through diet, and exercise) for optimal weight-loss results.
If you are relying on exercise alone to lose weight, you are fighting an uphill battle.
