Joseph asks…
How does exercise help lose weight?
I know it burns calories. But let’s say you eat 2500 a day. And you burn 300 in workout.
Wouldn’t it be easier to just eat 2200 calories a day?
I am just interested in how exercise helps weight loss.
weight loss cardiff answers:
Yeah you can eat 2200 calories to lose more weight instead of 2500. But the extra 300 can be quality foods such as lean proteins or complex carbs which is nutrition and your body will fill you up, and the extra protein will help rebuild and preserve muscle. By preserving muscles you burn more calories because the more muscle you have the higher your metabolic rate.
Excersise helps lose weight because your expending energy out. And fat is energy just saved up. So to sum everything up your using your body’s saved up energy instead of food energy(calories). I hope that makes sense and answers your question.
Betty asks…
Does anyone workout at Lucille Roberts in Fordham and want to get in shape with me this summer?
Anyone on this whole grand site signed up for lucille roberts in Fordham in New York would you like to be gym buddies? Or anyone looking to lose weight over the summer and lives in NYC (manhattan or bronx area) would like to be running/weight loss buddies for the summer? I think with a partner it would be much easier. Anyone really! I’d love a partner! Let me know if you know anyone if not you! I’m going into my 3rd year of college in September and would love to go back looking grand!

No, I have no interest in doing that.
Sandy asks…
Can fast weight loss be healthy if done right?
Fast weight loss is unhealthy because it can slow your metabolism and it will make you start burning muscle (from what I understand so far).
So my question is, Can fast weight loss be healthy if while cutting your calories you still separate to 5-6 meals a day to keep your metabolism up; While also going to the gym everyday working different muscle groups every other day, while still doing a strong aerobic workout every day?
weight loss cardiff answers:
Fast weight loss may not be the ideal way, but it does have advantages:
1. It’s better than remaining overweight.
2. It may be easier to stick to a short, brutal diet vs slow gradual weight loss.
3. You may have a deadline for your weight loss.
The fastest way to lose weight is a protein-sparing modified fast. The best book out there is by Lyle McDonald and is called the Rapid Fat Loss Handbook. There’s a review on my blog.
