Your ability to burn calories decreases despite your efforts to exercise more.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to lose weight, it seems that walking is more effective than running. Especially since walking does not damage your joints (knees and back), your heart or your muscles[2].<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-7898\" src=\"https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Walk-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Walk-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Walk-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Walk-235x235.jpg 235w, https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Walk.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We learn something else too: contrary to official recommendations, exercise alone is not very effective at losing weight.<br \/>\nTo stay slim in the long run, it&#8217;s better to change the way you eat (for example eat less sugar) than run out for miles.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Physical exercise limits<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Without doing anything, we are already burning 1,540 calories a day.<\/p>\n<p>Then, if we are physically active, our energy expenditure can grow quite easily up to 2600 calories [3]. But from 2600 calories, we reach a plateau. Any increase in physical activity does not consume as many calories. The body enters survival-distress mode. It blocks energy consumption for an emergency.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7906\" src=\"https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Bing-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1169\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Bing-1.jpg 1169w, https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Bing-1-768x420.jpg 768w, https:\/\/notrechiro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Bing-1-1024x561.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1169px) 100vw, 1169px\" \/><br \/>\nThe other classic trap is that after a very intense effort, we allow ourselves a disproportionate reward (a large meal or sweets) and rest (at least several days to cure our aches). Rewards of this kind negate the beneficial effects of the exercise.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The right strategy<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>The right strategy to limit the extra pounds is to eat:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less sugar (look at the labels, there is sugar added everywhere). In particular, beware of fruit juices. It is better to eat whole fruits.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fewer carbohydrates<\/strong> like bread, pasta, and potatoes. Carbohydrates instantly turn into sugar as soon as they arrive in your body.
