CBS Local Its possible that weight loss isnt directly pushed by exercising, according to a study conducted by Loyola University of Chicago.
Working out promotes good health across the board but not necessarily weight loss. Losing weight includes burning calories, but when the body burns more calories, the hungrier it gets leading those lost calories being replaced. Studies have also confirmed that notion as well as burning calories through exercise doesnt make up the majority of your bodys calorie burning.
Our study results indicate that physical activity may not protect you from gaining weight, said Lara Dugas,lead author an assistant professor of public health at theLoyola.
The study examined 2,000 people fromfive countries over three years. They were measured by weigh ins and activity monitors.
