Better if you exercise more

10- To lose weight, the more exercise you do, the better

Myth from a certain point: It is known that interventions that include physical activity will provide better quality in weight loss, that is, reduction of fat mass with preservation of muscle mass. However, it turns out that some people, not many, end up over exercising without any preparation and this is not beneficial to your metabolism.

The physiologist stresses that only a minority of people do this - they run more than 50 kilometers a week, for example (and it is important that they have the body prepared for it). Otherwise, "they can lead to premature aging and deficits in the body, leading to changes in metabolism that later make it harder to control weight." One of the studies that presents this question with pertinence was published in the Canadian Journal of Applied Physiology.

As we saw throughout this article with the 10 tips, today there are no absolute truths and much has been scientifically studied on all these topics. With all the information available, it does not make sense to standardize treatments. Like, a good diagnosis and self-knowledge of your body and metabolism is the essential point for success in weight management and health.
