Why exercise won’t make you thin
1 As I write this, tomorrow is Tuesday1, which is cardio day. I’ll spend five minutes in the gym warming
up on a towering2 machine that requires you to move your arms and legs simultaneously3. On
Wednesday, a personal trainer will work me like a farm animal for an4 hour, sometimes to the point
that I am dizzy. Friday will bring a5 five kilometre run. I have exercised like this for years. But recently I
began6 to wonder: why am I doing all this? I have never been overweight. One of the most widely
accepted, commonly repeated assumptions in our culture is that if you exercise, you will lose weight.
But I exercise all the time. I still have gut fat that hangs over7 my belt when I sit. Why isn’t all the
exercise wiping it8 out?
2 It’s a question many of us could ask. More than forty-five million people worldwide now belong to a
health club. And yet obesity figures have (to rise)9 dramatically in recent times. One third of our
population (to be)10 obese. It’s entirely possible that those of us who regularly go to the gym would
weigh even more if we (to exercise)11 less. But like many other people, I get hungry after I exercise, so I
I often eat more on the days I work out than on the days I don’t. Could exercise be actually keeping me
me from (to lose)12 weight? The past few years of obesity research show that the role of exercise in
weight loss has been wildly (to exaggerate) 13.
3 In general, for weight loss, exercise are14 pretty useless. Many recent study15 have found that exercise
isn’t as important in helping peoples16 lose weight as you here17 so regularly in advertisements or read
in magazines. The basic problem is that while it’s true that exercise burns calories and that you must
burned18 calories to lose weight, exercise have19 another effect: It can stimulate hunger. That cause us
eat more, which in turn can negate the weight loss benefits we just accrued. Exercise may be making it
harder for us to lose weight!
