According to recent studies, most of the people rely on calorie counting versus exercise to lose weight.
It is fact that twice as many dieters opt to count calories instead of heading to the gym.
Among women, the tendency to not exercise in favour of calorie counting is even more pronounced.
Roughly 50% of female dieters focus on food intake as opposed to take exercise, compared to 30% of male dieters who do this.
Is calorie counting more effective for weight loss than engaging in physical activity?
- WHY NOT TRY TO COMBINE YOUR DIET WITH PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR BEST RESULTS?!
Reducing caloric intake is VERY recommended for achieving practical weight loss goals.
However, most fitness experts would agree that a healthy weight loss strategy should definitely include some physical exercise.
Aerobic exercise can allow a dieter to expend additional calories while improving cardiovascular fitness, while anaerobic exercise can allow an individual to expend calories and increase lean muscle tissue, which can also lead to an increased ability to burn calories.
