You can’t outrun your fork.
I’m always reminding my challengers that you need to work on both nutrition AND physical activity! So many people I’ve spoken to USE the excuse of ‘OH I worked out today soooo I can over indulge in my meals’.
Yes I talk 80/20 (80% clean eating 20% indulgences) BUT if one does that every time they workout they’re just negating their hard work.
•If your goal is to lose weight…you have to burn more calories than you eat.
•Its said that 1lb of fat loss requires 3500 calories of exercise.
So for example just using my app -it says I burn 470 calories for 1-hour of running.
Soooo someone doing the same would have to run over 7 hrs for 1lb fat loss. OR run at least 1 hr a day for 7 days.
You can eat a muffin and fancy coffee and have consumed 1000+ calories in 10 minutes.
WHHAATTT
Sooooo JUST FOOD FOR THOUGHT you can decide to spend all week running and still not get ahead OR you can be even more conscious and self aware of what you eat and spend less time working out.
BALANCE friends. BALANCE!! You need to be realistic about your goals!!
