And yet, people who exercise more are overwhelmingly more likely to be a healthy weight.
This is all one really needs to know. Sometimes cargo-culting works.
This article gets close to what I suspect is the truth about exercise and weight-loss, but it's so focused on the premise of dismissing metabolism, it fails to say anything truly interesting.
For ages I listened to these ideas about exercise and weight-loss, and dismissed its role, focusing instead on "simply eating less calories". And then I realised I was being kind of dumb.
I've since formulated some ideas about the connection between exercise and weight-loss, and in particular, running and weight-loss.
So far, my subjective experience of starting running have born these out and I plan to write about them at length.
But for now, be careful taking such research and applying it to your actual life. As someone with a graduate level education, and a natural born academic, I've realised these researchers are far too clever for your own good.
