To lose weight, exercise should be accompanied by Diet

The starting base weight loss is achieved when the energy balance is negative: they consume more calories than you eat. Therefore, doing exercise is good because it burns calories. But make no mistake: the amount burned in it is smaller than commonly thought.

If after exercise we “rewarded” with a particularly appealing and calorie meal (a muffin, extra helping at dinner, one dessert that we like and therefore we …), we may be prohibited by canceling the slimming effect of exercise. You can even fatter than we are if we’d been sitting watching TV.

This is not to say that we should exercise when we want to lose weight, quite the contrary. The question is who should always be combined with diet, to add both effects. And never eat more after exercise.

Besides weight loss, exercise is very good for your health: it increases our muscle and bone mass decreases circulatory problems by consuming part of the blood fats that produce thermo, and strengthens the heart muscle. But exercise should not be disproportionate to the physical condition of the person doing it, and should be done regularly to have these positive effects.

Thus, the right combination for a weight loss plan would be: eat better (not necessarily eat less), moderate exercise usually advisable medical supervision, and a little patience: Do not expect lower twelve kilos in a month, but then gradually move and, above all, maintain the achievements.
