Why Exercise is Overrated (and what you should do instead)!

What if you could burn 200% more calories every day than you could with exercise alone? Wouldn’t this help you to lose weight faster, maintain it longer and become fitter? Exercise is overrated because it’s responsible for only about 5% of your total daily calorie expenditure. If you sleep for 8 hours each night and exercise for one hour, that one hour of exercise is only 6% of your day. However, NEAT activities account for over 63% of your day. In this episode, we will discuss, Why NEAT activities are much more important than exercise. Why people who exercise can still be “active couch potatoes.” Why a sedentary lifestyle leads to “sitting disease.” How you can burn an extra 3500 calories each week just by standing for ten minutes out of every waking hour each day. Why standing burns 2x the calories as sitting.
