I was just reading an article online where the author was discussing the theory of calories in versus calories out. We all know if you burn more calories than you consume, you will lose weight. Not brain science.
But what I liked in the article is that the author, Herb Duncan, gave an example of someone who had gained 20 pounds in 20 years. According to Duncan, if a person walks just 150 more steps daily (which could be done in 2-3 minutes a day), they would gain any weight at all.
Duncan then took this further and concluded that if someone goes to the gym just 10 times a year for approximately 30 minutes and does a light workout, they would actually lose 20 pounds over those 20 years.
Who can't spare 2-3 minutes a day? Really?
