Diet vs Exercise – Which is better for weight loss?

The common thinking for those looking to shed off some weight is to hit the gym. Sure, that might work but would it be the most effective way to lose weight?

The answer is a hard NO.

Everyone knows that to achieve weight-loss, you either reduce your calorie intake or you burn it through exercise. Most prefer the latter, but research have shown that people who exercised 30 mins or more has higher rates of weight gain than those who exercised less.

Why?

Your appetite is larger after burning off the calories in the gym. Hence, it’s important to keep to a clean diet, instead of eating more junk food than you usually do.

A simple step to clean-eating is to cut down white rice and adding quinoa to your bowl. It instantly elevates your fiber and protein intake. Or choosing to snack on Cacao blocks instead of potato chips helps to put off the empty calories. Simply opting your unhealthy food choices for healthy ones will have a lasting impact. Remember,

“Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym.”
