S2 Ep3 Physical Activity: It's Not Just About Being Thin

January is off to a great start and we thought talking about physical activity would be the perfect topic for those still knee-deep in diet resolutions. So, the connection between diet and exercise has always been promoted as a key to weight loss, but what if you were told exercising doesn't cause you to loose weight? Would you still do it? Would you stop all activity and become a couch potato?

I did some research and digging on the correlation between physical activity and weight loss, and I was not surprised to find several articles with credible citations making the claim that moving more won't help you weigh less. So why even bother? Not all of us enjoy physical activity, but what is important to remember when it comes to a healthy MIND AND BODY is that physical activity is necessary for both.

Some of my information came from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (http://www.integrativenutrition.com/). I also found some great info about this topic from the book, Intuitive Eating: A Revolutionary Program that Works by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. You can get it on Amazon or at any other bookstore. I also found some interesting research links via an article on VOX.com (https://www.vox.com/2016/4/28/11518804/weight-loss-exercise-myth-burn-calories). Go check it out if you want to learn more for yourself.

Come take a listen and let's see if you agree or not with what we discovered about why Exercise Won't Make You Skinny!
