Excerpt: Traditional Weight-Loss Advice is Flawed

badassbitchfit:

Traditional weight-loss advice: ‘Eat less and exercise more.’ You’ve heard it more times than you can remember. I hope I’ve convinced you by now that ‘Eat less’ is a formula for slowing your resting metabolic rate. And ‘Exercise more’ is a way to increase your metabolic rate.

The combination, however, can be expressed this way: Slow down your metabolism while speeding it up.

Does that sound reasonable? If a financial advisor told you to run up your credit cards while putting away money in a savings account, would you take that advice? Or would you get out of his office as fast as you possibly could? Would you say to your employees that you want them all to start working longer hours, and as a reward, you’re going to pay them less? If you made that announcement on Friday, would anyone show up on Monday?

It is, to put it as simply as I can, illogical.

The reward of eating less is that you have to eat even less as you lose weight and your metabolism slows down. I don’t know about you, but I can’t imagine that I’d be happy if all I got out of starving myself down to a smaller waist size is that I got to experience even deeper levels of starvation.

You wouldn’t take a deal like that in any other aspect of your life, and I hope I can talk you out of accepting it as the best way to lose weight. In fact, I don’t even like the phrase ‘weight loss’. To me, it implies indiscriminate weight loss, as if it’s equally beneficial to lose fat or muscle tissue, as long as the needle on the scale doesn’t go as far to the right.

- Lou Schuler, New Rules of Lifting for Women

To put it simply, it’s like saying the less gas you put in your car, the further it will go. WRONG. You’ll just fuck up your vehicle.

Eat more, do more. Be smart about your approaches.

This is true. But it only works if you first clearly define the goals you are working toward.
