What a weird response to a personal success story. Are just here to get more views for the video you’ve posted 3 times?

Changing you diet is much more effective than working out. Being fat is a natural reaction to an unnatural food environment.

Nah, I just felt like non-verified personal anecdotes that tell you the opposite of scientific facts should be corrected, so I did just that. I found the video while looking for a quick, credible proof and edited it in my older comments because it is exactly what I was looking for.

You still need to workout if you live a sedentary lifestyle. Research has shown that being sedentary has a worse effect to health compared to smoking. Also, don’t forget about the mental health benefits to working out.

Agreed! But diet trumps exercise, so start there.

You maybe be right, but using a fucking YouTube video? Seriously, that’s about as reliable as the “proof” flat earthers use…

I agree, it seems shady. But watch it, it’s only 6 minutes long and packed with scientific research. :)

I ahree, there’s two really significant variables:
-
food and drink
-
movement and posture
The rest is less important.

Counterpoint - when I started working out, I started feeling less hunger and ate less automatically. Shit’s connected. Just start somewhere, don’t think about what’s the most efficient and just do it.

Well, the narrative is that fat people are lazy and simply need to exercise more to lose weight. But this is not scientifically true. I’m posting this video again because it summarizes the scientific study situation in just 6 minutes.
