Is going to the gym worth it?
I've just watched an amazing Horizon programme: The Truth About Exercise. It was broadcast on 28th April but I hadn't watched it yet.As the title suggests, Michael Moseley was exploring how effective going to the gym really is in terms of weight loss, Such an interesting programme with lots of very scientific tests and info being given which sheds so much light on what is considered effective exercise.
The overall message coming from the programme was that walking is the best way of reducing fat in your body alongside a healthy eating regime.
Michael sat down to a massive cooked breakfast and a blood test revealed a big surge in fat in his blood. The following day he went on a walk and then ate the cooked breakfast a day later. Again he had a blood test and guess what? There was no increase in fat in the blood.
Are u beginning to realise why I've been banging on about the benefits of walking?
There is no doubt that it is the best form of exercise to be done in conjunction with healthy eating that will leave you healthier on the inside and on the outside too! Don't take my word for it. Watch the programme on iPlayer and see for yourself.
Now I'm off for a walk. X
