The second step in the Evans Weight Loss Group program is exercise. Current research shows that while weight loss is achieved through controlled dietary intake, the most effective way to maintain your weight loss is to continue exercising and to periodically increase your physical activity. In addition to helping you control your weight, exercise has a wide variety of health benefits and no healthy lifestyle is complete without it.
But I Hate to Exercise!
You are not alone. Many American feel the same way. Exercise is not as popular as it deserves to be. Recent data shows that less than half of the American population engages in some form of regular exercise. But if there is a fountain of youth, it is sensible, frequent exercise.
If you are like many people, your experiences with exercise have been unpleasant and likely monotonous. The idea of exercise may conjure up images of hours spent grinding away on a treadmill. Usually there is something else, or even a lot of things, that you would rather be doing. It’s true, there are a lot of things in life vying for your attention that make it challenging to find time to exercise-especially when you don’t like exercising anyway. But it doesn’t have to be like that. You can enjoy exercise.
We can show you how you can exercise without even realizing it. Our certified exercise physiologists will help you find activities that you enjoy and provide you with a customized strengthening and conditioning plan that will help you enjoy these activities even more so you grow stronger and healthier.
Why do I have to exercise if I am already dieting?
By exercising, we program the body to start working toward better health, better fitness and a healthier lifestyle. We teach our bodies what feeling healthy feels like. In addition, exercise will help you burn fat quicker without breaking down muscle, which is a vital part of safe and effective weight loss.
