forget the qualifer! the question "Why exercise" stands by itself! LOL!

Actually I read a TIME article the other day that posits the idea that exercise is actually counter productive to weight loss!

No kidding at all.

They suggest that exercise leads to increased caloric intake that acutally hinders weightloss and can actually lead to weight gain.

the TIME article also points to something I read years ago, that there is little statistical difference in life expectancy between those who work out extremely hard and those who walk moderately 4 times per week.

TIME suggest that weight loss is a function of caloric intake. And while working out/exercise is very good for over all health, the way we generally work out (1 hour of very intense work) does not really meet the kind of activity that is optimum for a human's health.

4 or 6 short workouts per da (4 to 10 minute walks) is actually more benificial and will not lead to the body demanding additional calories.


seriously...

It's funny that you mention that... I re-joined Curves a few weeks ago, and ever since then I have been STARVING. I told my husband the other night that I don't know what is wrong with me, but I am hungry all the time lately. He said - it's probably because you've been exercising more.

I'm starting to feel like a dog chasing my tail. Have to exercise more to burn the extra calories, which makes me hungrier, which means I eat more, which means I need to exercise more to burn *those * calories.......

Re: Why Exercise ?

Well, yeah, but think of it this way: exercise is good (in moderation), not smoking is good. Best to do both, but doing just one is better than nothing. Right?

you need to reset your body and how it thinks.... you need nutrition... not more food necessarly. Big difference! We always tend to eat more after working out all the time simply due to change of fluids and need for natural sugars from fruit and basic enrrgy production along the B Vit's etc... It's not "if you eat more it comes down always to "what" you eat more of. Workout you need more water initially... which in the larger picture you need more of other things to compensate. Again not necessarily food, but a more healthy diet that gives you what you need which might be more or less in the end that you consume.

Re: Why Exercise ?

Exercise with out dietary changes lead to failure

Stress Diet

The following diet is designed to help you cope with the stress that builds up during the holidays.

Breakfast:
1/2 grapefruit
1 slice whole wheat toast
8 oz. skim milk

Lunch:
4 oz. lean broiled chicken breast
1 cup steamed spinach
1 cup herb tea
1 Oreo cookie

Mid-Afternoon Snack:
The rest of Oreos in the package
2 pints Rocky Road ice cream nuts
cherries and whipped cream
1 jar hot fudge sauce

Dinner:
2 loaves garlic bread
4 cans or 1 large pitcher Coke
1 large sausage, mushroom and cheese pizza
3 Snickers bars

Midnight Snack:
Entire frozen Sara Lee cheesecake (eaten directly from freezer


Rules for This Diet

1. If you eat something and no one sees you eat it, it has no calories.

2. If you drink a diet soda with a candy bar, the calories in the candy bar are cancelled out by the diet soda.

3. When you eat with someone else, calories don't count if you do not eat more than they do.

4. Food used for medicinal purposes NEVER counts, such as hot chocolate, brandy, toast and Sara Lee Cheesecake.

5. If you fatten up everyone else around you, then you look thinner.

6. Movie related foods do not have additional calories because they are part of the entertainment package and not part of one's personal fuel. Examples: Milk Duds, buttered popcorn, Junior Mints, Red Hots and Tootsie Rolls.

7. Cookie pieces contain no calories. The process of breaking causes calorie leakage.

8. Things licked off knives and spoons have no calories if you are in the process of preparing something.

9. Foods that have the same color have the same number of calories. Examples are: spinach and pistachio ice cream; mushrooms and mashed potatoes.

10. Chocolate is a universal color and may be substituted for any other food color.

11. Anything consumed while standing has no calories. This due to gravity and the density of the caloric mass.

12. Anything consumed from someone else's plate has no calories since the calories rightfully belong to the other person and will cling to his/her plate. (We ALL know how calories like to cling!)

REMEMBER: STRESSED SPELLED BACKWARDS IS DESSERTS!

I read that article. Very true.


Gary Taubes pointed all of it out in his book 'Good Calories, Bad Calories' a few years back. Good read.
