@drranganchatterjee: EXERCISE & WEIGHT LOSS! There’s no doubt that exercise is brilliant for our physical and mental wellbeing. But what is its role in weight loss? This seems to be a very contentious area. My guest on this week’s podcast is Tim Spector, and in this short clip he shares his view that for many of us, exercise ALONE may not be that effective for losing excess weight. For me, Herman Pontzer's research has shown that extra exercise is not always ‘additive’ in terms of calorie expenditure for a given individual, but I still believe that moving one’s body each day is a helpful tool for us all, including those who want to lose excess weight. Moving our bodies each day helps us to feel good and boost self esteem, which in turn can help us stay engaged with other lifestyle behaviours we are trying to implement. What are your thoughts? Has your experience been different to this? Let us know your thoughts below!! ⭐️ Please note this is a SHORT CLIP from EPISODE 350 of the 'Feel Better, Live More' podcast with Tim Spector.
