Exercise is a brilliant tool for boosting your health, fitness and well-being.
But for losing weight…. not so much!
At the core of any weight loss strategy is the concept of caloric balance – consuming fewer calories than your body expends over an extended period of time. Nutrition is the primary driver of this balance as the types and quantities of food you choose directly impact your overall caloric intake. While exercise does contribute to calorie expenditure, it is your dietary choices that largely determine whether you achieve (and maintain) a caloric deficit.
In short, it is much easier to consume calories than burn them off through exercise.
Which is why focusing on a nutritious diet, mindful eating practices and portion control is fundamental for achieving a slimmer waistline and leaner body!
