Weight Loss without Exercise

• For weight loss you not only don't need to work out — you shouldn't work out at first; intense training drives up hunger, and at 80.5 kg of daily gym, kickboxing, and bodybuilding the result was gaining more fat, not muscle.
• Hard exercise while overweight risks injury: near-daily intense workouts produced injuries to the left shoulder, left knee, and neck, and even running is hard on joints, ligaments, and muscles.
• Fix nutrition before physical activity, like fixing a car's engine before taking it on a long trip — nutrition is the foundation both for losing weight and for becoming healthier.
• Walking is the one form of movement to keep, depending on your body's condition: brisk walks or strolls in the city, woods, or on a treadmill, with music you enjoy.
• A workable protocol is to spend roughly the first six months of a weight-loss journey with no gym at all — only occasional walks — letting the body heal before returning to serious training.
