Using calories through physical activity, combined with reducing calories you eat, creates a calorie deficit that results in weight loss.
Most weight loss occurs from decreasing caloric intake.
- Evidence shows the only way to maintain weight loss is to be engaged in regular physical activity.
- Physical activity increases people’s total energy expenditure,
- which can help them stay in energy balance or even lose weight,
as long as they don’t eat more to compensate for the extra calories they burn.
- Physical activity decreases fat around the waist and total body fat,
slowing the development of abdominal obesity.
