Comment Comment by 60secz Exercise Activity Thermogenesis is about 5% of calories, so the least significant contribution in total calories.Reduced NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis/walking/fidgeting) is a bigger factor by an order of magnitude.100% of weight gain is due to net caloric surplus. The main contribution by far is eating more calories.https://jissn.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1550-2783-1... parent 60secz 5 years ago
