I walk 60-90 minutes just about every day and eat at a calorie deficit and have lost 60lbs in 5 months. People don't realize just how effective walking is.
Iam doing same and i lost 50lbs. I will add more cardio to build stamina and more shape body but for now walking and diet changes are best i was not in shape for running or hitting gym when i was winded just after one flight of stairs. Iam getting much better already resolved many health issues as apnoea, oedema, reflux etc.. Walking is not effective from athletic standpoint but also very effective because in this day and age people are barely moving so its still massive upgrade from sitting whole day in front of PC. As was said in video things need time to happen and big mistake is people start super hard beyond their limits and will thinking it few weeks miracle happen and they fail spectacularly. There are many videos of people that do it but that's not normal they are outliners with iron will and dedication and 99% of people cant do it.
I walk 45 minutes to an hour a day and in 7 weeks I dropped 20 lbs as of today, I also cut out soda primarily only drinking water and water with mio and protein shakes, cleaned up my diet and feel human again :) it’s amazing what cardio can do for you. I also dropped my resting heart rate from 75+ to 60+
This was very interesting, thanks for posting. My own experience is simple, back in September 2020 I weighed 16 stones (224 lbs) and I was shocked to be honest. I started walking 30 minutes a day every day irrespective of what I had on. I have built this up to 70 minutes, once again irrespective of what else I am doing that day, and I now weigh 13 st 9lbs (190 lbs). The only thing I have changed is that I walk every day, no change in diet or more exercise than I was already doing except the walking. I'm extremely pleased with the results, as is my wife!!!!
Yes. I was doing carnivore and added OMAD. I fast for 20 hours. I have lost 11 inches, I'm in my 10th week. I have been walking 10K STEPS a day for 5 days now. I'm about to add weight workouts. I think that eliminating sugar COMPLETELY must be done. Also, adding weight training. My chiropractor told me that only muscle burns fat. Best wishes!
walking to lose weight and cutting back on calories is like magic.! I mean its unbelievable when you see the changes in your body just by walking, especially your stomach. You want to know if its that simple.
I’m on my 3rd month of walking 40-50 minutes in my apartment complex… feeling great I can tell I’ve lost some weight. My mood is better and blood pressure went down. My scale went out and I haven’t checked again since month 1. Will update comment once I get a scale!
@@zilverheart I still haven’t gotten a scale but I weighed myself over my sisters on Christmas and I’m down about 12 lbs. My family says it looks as though I’m losing weight they haven’t seen me since August. So that’s definitely a motivation. I have started in home waking workouts since it’s getting colder and dark earlier.
Absolutely I agree. Consistency is key. walking everyday has kept my weight down. there r days that I dont walk like if theres a thunderstorm n raining but other than that I walk my 3 dogs daily and they look forward to it. There are days I do more walking n there r days I do less but it's by doing it religiously that u get th benefits
I only walked for an hour everyday for My first ever weight loss in 2015. I was able to keep in shape by walking until 2019 when Covid hit. I let my self go for a while and now, I am back to walking every day. Walking is the cheapest exercise. You get in shape without any body aches😩.
I walk 1 to 2 miles(incline 10) 5x per week, burning straight fat bc I am always about 18 hours into my fast. To keep my curves, I also lift heavy 3x per week. I love it!
That is correct! During the first Corona lockdown I did nothings but walk around 4 times a week, building up from 20 to 40 minutes of slightly brisk walking. With no other change to my daily routine. I was the only person i know having lost weight after a few months of lockdown
I usually consume about 200 calories below my maintenance requirement. I do 4-5 10 min exercise videos a day, or walk about 40-50 minutes...sometimes a combo of both. I've been losing a few lbs a month, even tho I'm close to my ideal weight. I also stay somewhat low carb and 'fast' about 14-16 hrs overnight. Makes it easy when you're not too extreme in any one area. I'm almost 70. 5' 9''/ 148 lbs. Fill up on veggies!
With a 21.9 BMI at 70 and losing 0.5-1.0 kg a month I see no reason to increase her fasting period. If anything she might consider decreasing it (LBM dependent).
I really believe that intermittent fasting is the key to maintaining a healthy weight. Depending on age range, alternating between 12-18 or even 20 hours is practical and sustainable
Working as a server/Waiter for almost 7 years. During rush hours, its like 4-5 hrs. continous running back & forth. Damn, it feels good. Its like you're working out at your work that's working you out.😂 Im so fit & healthy. God bless.❤
I started diet a week ago , loss 2 kg already (94 kg ➡️ 92 kg). Walking for 2 hours (mostly b4 bed) , and ate 900 calories + 3 liter water or green tea a day . Most hardest thing so far is control the appetite at night lol. My goal is 70 kg . Wish me luck 😤
I’ve been walking and strength training with kettlebells for about a month now. The mood and energy boost alone is worth it. I walk between three to four miles a day at a pace that really gets my heart rate going, followed by 20-30 minutes of kettlebell work. I began to notice the energy increase after about a week, and it feels incredible.
How many inches have you lost? Or weight? Or sizes? I just started walking and I want to add some weight training, but I can't afford a gym membership. I'd appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!
@@samsmom400 Gym membership not needed. One or two kettlebells and body weight exercises are all you need. Plenty of UA-cam videos available on how to plan your workouts. Good luck, kettlebells are fantastic.
Exactly....people seem to think you can lose weight by walking / exercise alone. My husband walks about 5 or 6 miles a day, sometimes more but never loses any weight...but that's not the reason he walks, he just likes it. I, who hate walking, would rather eat less than walk or exercise for the amount of time it would take to burn off anything significant ( a lot...too much for me). I've lost 70 lbs in 10 months by changing my eating habits and cutting out alcohol completely ( other than at Christmas, when I regained about 5 lbs in a week...I am convinced the alcohol had a lot to do with it because your body burns off alcohol before anything else)
Daily Walking (average 1 hour). Heavy Weights (three days weekly). BJJ Rolling (fives time weekly). No sugar. Minimal processed foods. Lots of black coffee. Dropped 50lbs.
Slow & steady is the best as it means one keeps the weight off. Going too fast means putting it all back on. Slow & steady also means exercise becomes part of your lifestyle.
Walking is so much better than running. I'm 59 and was 292 lbs in Sept 23. I have dropped 68lbs by walking everyday. If you twang a muscle running, your daily exercise is in jeopardy and your routine is interrupted. I walk about 8 kms a day for about an hour. Changed diet, lots of veggies and some protein, fewer carbs. One meal a day. Target is 190 lbs.
Great point about the increased injury risk with running. It's particularly relevant for people who are just starting out with exercise, or returning to it after a long layoff. Good luck with your goals.
The reason why body fat isn't the 454g X 9 calories is because that is a pure fat number but body fat is stored in adipose tissue that is only 85-87% fat for most people. the rest is adipose tissue, water and some nutrients. That's why you have to reduce the amount of calories in a lb of body fat by 13-17% from that 454g X 9 calories number. It's somewhere between 3473 -3700 calories for most of the population.
Also, just subscribed. I am also an environmental engineer so if you ever have questions about the math of anything you can always hit me up and I'll gladly give ya insight.
Appreciate your comment! I looked this up too shortly after posting the video and it's so helpful to have your comment right here for anyone else that might be wondering. Appreciate it.
Walking has been a part of my life for 25 years..ofcourse with occasional breaks due to other commitments. In 50 min walk i lose around 250 calories..in the course of the whole day i lose approximately 1500 cal. My weight is stable at 60kg... why am i not losing weight.
Thank you for your question. It’s difficult to provide personalized advice without a lot more information. What I can say is that if you’re daily energy expenditure is 1500 kcal and your body weight is stable, that suggests your energy intake is also around 1500 kcal. Losing weight requires being in a calorie deficit, so either further increases in activity or reducing calorie intake would be the next steps. Things like eating more protein, drinking lots of water, getting good sleep and doing strength training two or more times per week are other habits that help with weight loss goals.
@@trainforever1142 thanks so much for your reply.. I am 59 years old and 5ft 1inch in height. I do a reasonable intensity workout twice a week. I guess I have to pay attention to my intake of food.
I walk between 10,000-15,000 steps a day and do IF fasting daily 16-20 hours daily I eat more fruit and fish, veggies and nuts and I have not weighed myself since Jan of 2023 but others who see me can tell a huge difference. I was between 152-164 I know I have trimmed down because of how my undies fit and my energy level and I feel so much better on the inside, and I feel more vibrate and my goal is to walk 5-6 days a week. After I walk I do arm workout and ab workout and that is my complete body workout and its working for me!!!
Yes, you can! It took me awhile to become overweight, however it took me awhile to lose it. Weight loss was gradual, the way I wanted it. So enjoyable and easy to do. When covid hit, I found a walk at home program on the net that has worked wonders. Great video, thank you for posting.
I've walked off 50 lbs in the past year and still going. I also drink tons of water, manage my meds, and most of all- eat better and count my calories.
I never struggled with weight; swam, walked, but had a bad bout of sciatica and a back injury a few yrs back plus other things so I was virtually in bed for 3 yrs and gained 40 lbs. Ouch you say. I was on a walker at the age of 58 which was unacceptable; I love dogs suddenly no dogs in my life. Physiotherapy and walking have earned me my life back plus a Covid 19 dog --- spend an hour and a half with her outside and am mindful of not lolling in front of the computer which is how i make my living so am mindful and healthy eating etc. I didn't track weight loss but it is obvious I am back to normal. At my age losing weight did result in some loose skin. Who cares???? This may sound breezy but it was HUGE for me. I would say to everyone whether you are losing weight or not; get outside!! It totally fixed my sleep which is huge. Perhaps people are not seeing immediate results; one day at a time and don't go from 0 to 100 which is a recipe for disaster. I started with a fitbit but after learning that I had an old hairline spinal fracture which was playing havoc with all kinds of body alignment i just get in what I can and if I just don't feel like it, Kiwi the miracle dog does, so bound to get out there. Great video, inspiring.
@@InGodwetrust365 Intermittent fasting can certainly work as a weight loss strategy. Your body can use stored fat for fuel as long as you are in a caloric deficit, it doesn't matter if you do IF or not. IF will not shrink loose skin.
Walking is Free Walking lifts your mood Walking helps with your balance and joints Hey and it helps you burn body fat 😂 Just get out there !!💪💪💪💪💪💪🙌🙌🙌🙌♥️
Lost 50 pounds in 16 weeks. From 220 to 170. Walking at least 30 minutes and at times an hour a day. But this was combined with a significant calorie deficit. That for me, was too much weight to fast. At about 30 pounds lost my clothes were fitting really good. 20 pounds later I looked not very good in my clothes because I lost muscle as well. But looking good again due to weight training. I should have been doing BOTH at the same time.
Thanks for sharing your story. The role that strength training plays in better weight loss outcomes is still underrated. People like you sharing your story helps. Thanks!
I am about 210lbs and its mostly because I just don't move at all in a day, just sitting in front of my computer. I have regulated the amount of snacks and food I eat, but not so much that I count the calories. So I figured that I could use the gym-membership that I had and just walk on the treadmill every so often for 1 hour. And its not bad, I just set it to a semi-quick walking speed with an incline, place my phone on the machine and just watch some videos while walking. I don't feel sick or tired after doing so, no muscle pains either, which is quite nice. The machine calculates that I am walking off about 420Kcal an hour by doing so, and there are some small results already, like almost no double chin when tilting my head down. Good luck to everyone else. (I would walk up some trails in the mountain instead, but that would require me to go all the way back again + I have pollen allergy, so walking in nature isn't as comfortable.)
Statistics, although interesting to a degree, should not be the benchmark to calculate your goals. Just walk - just exercise - just move - just eat less and enjoy the feeling.
I take a 2 mile walk with my kids every day (Time varies because small kids. When they stop I effectively do laps around them until we get going again. I lost 2kg in the first week. Next weigh in is 2 days and I pair it now with 1.5hrs of paced weight training. I feel great.
By only walking 50 minutes morning and 50 minutes evening eat one meal in 24hr with alot of water finally I I lost 22kg in three months.was 108kg and now after three months 86.my goal is 75.will walk 2 months more with same diet
Intermittent fasting works really well for some people, not as well for others. Physical activity and healthy eating are prerequisites for good health. Intermittent fasting is very much optional.
@@trainforever1142 I eat once a day till I'm full with no snacks and I'm good to go. Humans didn't evolve to be eating all the time. I don't really call it fasting it's just what I do day in day out. Good thing about fasting is all you have to do is try to see if it's good for you. Always with a good diet and physical activity though. I also walk 8 to 10 miles a day, every day. It's about lifestyle choices not diets.
@@kosys5338 That's awesome. I'm happy to hear you have had such great success with your routine. I think you hit the nail on the head when you say one can try fasting to see if it's for them. It's a great option that's certainly worth a try for people who haven't found what works best for them. I do think it's important to acknowledge it's not a one-size-fits all solution, and may not work for people who could have lots of success with some other approach. Thanks for commenting!
@@trainforever1142 I would most certainly have to agree it's not a one size fits all. I'm not sure that anything is a one size fits all, and thanx for the kind words.
In response to your question about calories in fat, according to a Healthline article, "Body fat is mixed with fluid and protein. Therefore, its composition and calorie content are not the same as pure fat," and "Body fat tissue is 87% fat." Using 87% gets you to around 3500.
Thank-you for this video and thanks to those who share their success stories. Reading about success helps my motivation. I currently walk about 2-3 miles/day 6x/week. The thought of working up to 10000 steps/day (about 5 miles) can be overwhelming. Any tips on staying motivated would be appreciated.
Pace yourself. Don't worry about the 10k steps, just walk until you're unable to go further, distract yourself by listening to an audiobook or favorite playlist and just walk. Check your steps when you're done and you praise yourself for any step(s) taken because you're better than you were yesterday. Hope this helps because it did for me! Happy steps! 👏
I can hit 10,000 if I break up my walks during the day. So a 20 min walk to work, hour long walk during lunch and 30 min walk home from work will usually get me to around 10K. Break up the walks and it will add up 😊
You can follow the video that do 5,000 steps. Do it twice and you get 10,000 steps or you can on some sport music or some music and walk. I find it easier to walk if i put music on.
I was going to say while cooking, cleaning, a walk for one or two hours a day and cutting out sweats sodas, chips , cooking my own meals and adding cinamon on your favorite foods like. Apples some breads and eat proteins I am losing weight.
At 6:05 you state you’ve always heard that fat has 3,500 calories per gram, but I’ve always heard it was 3,500 calories per pound which puts it at a little under 9 calories per gram since there’s 454~ grams in a pound - not sure if you misspoke or if the sources were off by much more than you previously pointed out
You walk...you lose. Honestly, I m walking 4 miles, did lose weight, not what I wanted, but my Dr. said it was good for my heart. I m still walking, m a size 6P. Have been a size 6P for over 40 yrs. My doctor said that slim people have a hard time healing, whenever they get sick...more then the overweight. What the heck, m walking!!!
Any recommendations for best walking shoes? Ever since I hit 40yrs old a few years ago my feet get sore easier. So far my adidas are my best ones but even those don’t perfectly reduce it. I’ve been doing 30 min of walking in am and 30 in pm recently. I did put on quite a bit of weight the last 6-7 years (just kept climbing up- totaling like 50-60 lbs). So maybe the weight gain has also contributed to my feet sore easier. My weight used to be pretty consistent in my younger years, only fluctuating up or down about 10 lbs. even after having kids it dropped back down to normal quickly. So ever since scale started climbing I’ve been quite shocked how I could let it get so high. I hope walking helps me change direction. I know I’ve got to lower sugar intake too. I’ve never been a soda or juice drinker, just water, but I love my chocolate and cookies. And I ate cleaner in my 20’s avoiding processed stuff. Somehow I’ve gotten off track.
Thanks for your comment. There's no exact best shoe, it really depends on the person and what's going on with their feet. The employees at high quality running shoe stores can often give some basic insight. Whatever feels comfortable and allows you to do more activity with less pain is generally the way to go. Doing that while also building foot and leg strength with various exercises is a great two pronged approach to help reduce pain while also building capacity. Good luck!
I do official workouts 4x per week. Two are lower body + hill sprints and two are upper body push and pull workouts. But...walking is my main priority. It relieves stress, curbs hunger, helps recovery, and burns a lot of cals with basically no real effort. On average I do 15-25K steps every...single...day. 👍
I walked one hour 4 days a week for two months and didn't lose an ounce of weight, nor did my measurements change. I'm on a low carb diet and eat 2 meals a day, no snacks. I did not increase or decrease my caloric intake. Apparently nothing causes me to lose fat except for adding muscle. I lost 25 pounds on keto and time restricted eating and have maintained it for 4 years but I'm stuck. I'm going to try strength training again. When I had to stop strength training due to surgery (and then got out of the habit) I stopped losing weight. I hoped walking would help. I have more stamina but no help with the stubborn plateau.
This is exactly me. I’ve only been successful in losing weight whilst walking when my carb intake is very low. I think I’m insulin resistant, this could be the same for you.
Hi I'm getting serious with my weight loss I went to the doctor I was 260 almost 300 pounds I don't look like it but it'd my tummy and I just felt horrible o threw away all my chips and unhealthy snacks I spent money on groceries and will work on calories go to the gym twice a day 1 hr treadmill and many more exercises
I walk about 50-60 mins a day. 25-30 mins to school then about the same time back home. It's worked to help me lose a bit of weight It's also a great way to get me awake in the morning haha
i’m 19, my height is 5’9 & i weigh 211. i started walking today because i’m trying to lose weight and be healthy. i am also dieting / calorie deficit. my goal weight is 130 - 140 lbs in a year or less. hopefully i get there, i do think it’s possible. i will update in a month
Could I just ask? Is it best to walk on an empty stomach? I walk briskly between 1 hour and 1 hour 25 minutes a day. Yet my weight remains the same. Thank you and excellent advice
Thanks for your question. It doesn't make that much of a difference to fat loss outcomes whether you exercise on an empty stomach or not. It all comes down to energy balance and the factors that contribute to either side of that equation. Things that tend to contribute to successful are lots of walking, lifting weights 2-4 times per week, eating whole foods and hitting a protein target, getting lots of sleep, drinking lots of water and managing stress. Whenever someone I'm working with is trying to lose weight, those are the things we explore, focus on and make changes around. If all of those pieces of the puzzle aren't in place, that's usually the reason for not seeing the desired results. Good luck with your training.
I really can't say. 300-500 / hour of walking is a good approximation. Body size and speed of walking have the biggest impact on that number. Any other number of factors unique to the person can also play a role. Good luck.
I have been walking consistently approx 4-5 days a week for 45 minutes to an hour for 5 months.(Tracking it and it's approx 300 miles.) I haven't lost any weight but haven't gained. My question is, have I built up muscle, which weighs more than fat, so it balanced out? Hope that made sense. Thanks
It depends on a number of factors. If you picked up walking from after a year on bedrest, then yes you will build up muscles. Also noteworthy is your consistency. Perhaps doing it everyday is the key. Perhaps you burn the same number of calories as you accumulate over the 3 non-walking days. Maybe you changed your diet to accommodate your cravings of carbs and fats.
Its doubtful you added any significant muscle weight. You may want to make some adjustments to what you are eating. Even people lifting weights often will say they added 10-20 lbs of muscle. The majority of them are wrong as it really takes time to add 20 lbs of muscle for any average person without drugs.
In the pedometer app to make sure I burn what I'm actually burning I set my personal info weight to 30 lb man and it says I burn 1 cal per minute, that way I overshoot instead of under shoot. That combined with making sure my lifts aren't slacking from the calorie deficit I can eat whatever I want.
Depends on the person as well as the speed and duration of the walk. Generally speaking, quite quickly, as it's a low impact, low intensity exercise. That's one of the benefits.
Pure fat has about 4,000 calories per gram, yes, but body fat only has 3,500 calories per gram because body fat is mixed with fluid and protein. Its composition and calorie content are not the same as *pure* fat.
It takes me an hour to burn 300 calories at a speed setting of 3.2 according to my treadmill. I thought that was a pretty good pace, but now I'm feeling a bit dejected seeing that people are moving at much faster paces and moving further in that same hour of time.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Something that I think is really important when working improving our fitness level is to stick to competing with ourselves and not others. Everyone's on their own path. 3.2 is a fine speed. I have a client who started at 2.5 and has built herself up to 2.8. She's noticed a difference and is proud of her progress, and she should be! Keep working hard and the results will keep coming. Good luck.
It’s not always necessary to maintain the same level of caloric deficit as you lose weight. If the size of the deficit decreases, the rate of weight loss will slow down, but this is expected as one reaches their goal weight. In these stages of weight loss patience might be a better approach than additional activity or reduction in calories consumed, although all of those options can be explored as well. As for adding walking or strength training that depends on the current structure of the program, goals, and other lifestyle factors
Does your apple 🍎 watch accurately measure 📏 the calories properly burned by exercising? I exercise about 2.5 hours a day and that is the minimum amount I exercise daily. Some days I exercise up to 3 hours 45 minutes a day!
They are as accurate as any other readily available consumer product. Not perfect but should be fairly close. And they are consistent within themselves, so you can track the relationship between energy expended as recorded by the apple watch and any other outcome, like weight lost, or energy levels, etc, and make decisions based on that.
I've been walking over 10,000 steps per day (when my average without trying is about 5,000) and being careful with what I eat for about 3 weeks now and I've experienced no weight loss whatsoever. I don't eat a lot of sugar, rarely get take away foods and only drink alcohol on the weekends. No weight loss at all. Nada.
You won't notice much in 3 weeks or maybe none at all..give it time I was into my 3rd month before I noticed it starting to shift,an it's only when I started to walk up hills that I moved about 10 kg.keep at it and you will get there,but it takes time.
@@scorpiontail2561 No, i stopped relying on walking alone for weight loss - its just not enough. I reduced my calorie intake, started intermittent fasting and diversified my exercise regime - walking, running, swimming, biking - whatever I'm feeling that day. I've lost about 4 kgs now.
@@CyeOutsider 4kg is a good amount of weight to lose.if you are still able to run,that's a great exercise and will help you lose weight(depending on distance run and speed).at 52 I would probably pull muscles or damage ligaments, which does you no good,if I started running. The higher the intensity of your exercises,,the more you'll burn off,but make sure you don't damage yourself.👍
Remember that you become more efficient when doing a repeated sequence exercise.... Therefore less energy burned. Also if you are losing Bodyweight, less of you to move,less energy required. Keep doing what you are doing,just don't get frustrated at slower Bodyfat loss over time.
I was swimming an hour a day before covid. Afraid of indoor pools and locker rooms now, so got myself a treadmill. I walk 6 days per week about 3 to 3.5 miles per hour for an hour with in and out of small inclines (after that, I just feel like I am going to crazy with boredom). I can't jog (bad knees). I am just gaining pound after pound. No change in diet. What to do?
Hi Ruth, thanks for your question. I can't comment on your specific situation. Something that has been happening a lot since covid is people are experiencing a significant reduction in non-exercise activity. Someone who may have worked in an office and done their grocery shopping in person before may now work from home and do curbside pickup. This, plus many other small changes, can really add up over the long run. Replacing this non-exercise activity has been a challenge for many people.
First I must say thank you for this video. But my question is will I lose weight from my thigh when walking? My weight is 214 and I want to lose weight from my thigh because I believe it's affecting my knees Please reply it would be grateful Thanks
Good question! What you're describing is something known as spot reduction, where we deliberately try to lose fat in a specific body part. This isn't possible. The good news is that a healthy weight loss plan will result in fat being lost throughout the body. Good luck.
I really can't say. I typically recommend walking for an hour most days of the week when looking to use walking as part of a weight loss strategy. How that will work for a particular person depends on a lot of factors. I can't give personalized nutrition recommendations in a format like this. Good luck.
"Energy in/energy out" is a very simplified explanation because it fails to take into account that if you are fat then you're going to be insulin resistant; so unless you tackle the insulin resistance, then all you'll achieve is to yo-yo your weight and probably end up fatter. However, as walking is easier on the body, you will lose an amount of weight until the body lowers your Basel Metabolic Rate to compensate
Energy in/out is a simple concept that can become complex as you investigate the factors that contribute to each side of the equation. The existence of insulin resistance doesn't invalidate the energy balance model. Could it be that an insulin resistant person is more likely to store excess energy as fat rather than expend it or excrete it? Sure. But all energy into the system must still be accounted for in some way. Insulin resistance improves or resolves mostly through the reduction of body fat. This loss of body fat can be achieved through restricting carbohydrates, but more fundamentally and universally, will result from a calorie deficit. Restricting carbs can achieve that calorie deficit. So can other methods such as calorie restriction, or increasing physical activity (usually both). The current evidence does not support the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9071483/

@@trainforever1142 Really, then please explain why a PLETHORA of other people of reputation promote Intermittent Fasting as the way to reduce insulin resistance and therefore the restriction that prevents weight loss. You may prefer to do your research properly and be less closed to other ideas because it appears to me that you have a vested financial interest in promoting the hokom of calorific restriction. If you restrict calories, your body will adapt and lower your Basel Metabolic Rate, then what do you do; reduce your calories even further, train more - it's unsustainable as a method of weight loss and for maintaining a healthy weight thereafter
@@leestockton9367 Good question. I can't speak to why certain people promote certain things. Some are probably trying to promote what they think helps people. Other people are trying to get views and likes or sell their book. You see a lot of both these days. What about all the people promoting keto? Or carnivore? Are they all right as well? To be clear, I never said there was anything wrong with intermittent fasting. I only criticized Thomas Delauer specifically, and I stand by that. I think fasting can be great. I know it works for a lot of people. In terms of weight loss, it works by creating an energy deficit, by restricting the window within with a person eats. All diets work this way. Keto restricts calories by restricting an entire macronutrient group. Low fat diets work the same way, just a different macronutrient. I'm not advocating for any one particular diet, and in my own coaching practice, use different approaches, including fasting, if that's what will work best for the person for a long period of time. What is not true, is this idea that intermittent fasting is inherently superior to other methods when calories are matched: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31614992/ If we're talking about insulin resistance, here's a meta analysis that shows definite benefit of IF when compared to control, but WORSE outcomes for insulin resistance compared to caloric restriction: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35586738/ Crucially, the authors note that many studies reported participants having an easier time sticking to IF protocols, and that's significant. Bit of a different topic, but just for fun, this one compared low carb to moderate carb diets on weight loss outcomes and found they worked equally well: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35088407/ Again, I have nothing against fasting. I honestly think it's great if that's what a person wants to do. I am though, opposed to the idea that it is inherently superior to other dietary approaches to weight loss because the evidence does not support that.
Yes. It’s one of many things that a person can do to help reduce belly fat, as well as provide several other health benefits. Walking on its own may not be enough to create substantial change in body composition. Other things that help are eating protein from plant or animal sources, vegetables, drinking lots of water, getting restful sleep, eating less processed food and doing strength training 2-4x per week
@@trainforever1142 Thank you for the quick reply I really like it. I really need to know how many pounds would someone lose if they did walking for an hour everyday?
I walk 60-90 minutes just about every day and eat at a calorie deficit and have lost 60lbs in 5 months. People don't realize just how effective walking is.
Iam doing same and i lost 50lbs. I will add more cardio to build stamina and more shape body but for now walking and diet changes are best i was not in shape for running or hitting gym when i was winded just after one flight of stairs. Iam getting much better already resolved many health issues as apnoea, oedema, reflux etc.. Walking is not effective from athletic standpoint but also very effective because in this day and age people are barely moving so its still massive upgrade from sitting whole day in front of PC. As was said in video things need time to happen and big mistake is people start super hard beyond their limits and will thinking it few weeks miracle happen and they fail spectacularly. There are many videos of people that do it but that's not normal they are outliners with iron will and dedication and 99% of people cant do it.
I walk 45 minutes to an hour a day and in 7 weeks I dropped 20 lbs as of today, I also cut out soda primarily only drinking water and water with mio and protein shakes, cleaned up my diet and feel human again :) it’s amazing what cardio can do for you. I also dropped my resting heart rate from 75+ to 60+
how much calorie deficit did you do ?
Same here. Just over 50 pounds since October.
This is the only way to do it. You can walk to the cows come home but you out eat your walking you’re still FATTTTTTTTTTT!
-Walking is good
-Brisk walking is better
-Brisk walking on inclines (stairs, treadmill etc.) is best!
Plus wearing a weight vest
That will finish your knees much sooner
This was very interesting, thanks for posting. My own experience is simple, back in September 2020 I weighed 16 stones (224 lbs) and I was shocked to be honest. I started walking 30 minutes a day every day irrespective of what I had on. I have built this up to 70 minutes, once again irrespective of what else I am doing that day, and I now weigh 13 st 9lbs (190 lbs). The only thing I have changed is that I walk every day, no change in diet or more exercise than I was already doing except the walking. I'm extremely pleased with the results, as is my wife!!!!
Thanks for sharing your story. Good luck with your health and fitness!

Yes. I was doing carnivore and added OMAD. I fast for 20 hours. I have lost 11 inches, I'm in my 10th week. I have been walking 10K STEPS a day for 5 days now. I'm about to add weight workouts.

walking to lose weight and cutting back on calories is like magic.! I mean its unbelievable when you see the changes in your body just by walking, especially your stomach. You want to know if its that simple.

@@zilverheart I still haven’t gotten a scale but I weighed myself over my sisters on Christmas and I’m down about 12 lbs. My family says it looks as though I’m losing weight they haven’t seen me since August. So that’s definitely a motivation.

That is correct! During the first Corona lockdown I did nothings but walk around 4 times a week, building up from 20 to 40 minutes of slightly brisk walking. With no other change to my daily routine. I was the only person i know having lost weight after a few months of lockdown
But did you continue those habits?
@@Scott-got-caught for a while I didn’t and noticed a decline in overall feeling of well-being and again slowly putting on back weight
I usually consume about 200 calories below my maintenance requirement. I do 4-5 10 min exercise videos a day, or walk about 40-50 minutes...sometimes a combo of both. I've been losing a few lbs a month, even tho I'm close to my ideal weight. I also stay somewhat low carb and 'fast' about 14-16 hrs overnight. Makes it easy when you're not too extreme in any one area. I'm almost 70. 5' 9''/ 148 lbs. Fill up on veggies!
Congratulations!! Dy Ann says that for women our age if you fast 20 hours it makes all the difference in getting weight off.
With a 21.9 BMI at 70 and losing 0.5-1.0 kg a month I see no reason to increase her fasting period. If anything she might consider decreasing it (LBM dependent).
Or eat a steak 👌🏼
I really believe that intermittent fasting is the key to maintaining a healthy weight. Depending on age range, alternating between 12-18 or even 20 hours is practical and sustainable
70 and still being that health-conscious? That's awesome!
Working as a server/Waiter for almost 7 years. During rush hours, its like 4-5 hrs. continous running back & forth. Damn, it feels good.
Its like you're working out at your work that's working you out.😂

I started diet a week ago , loss 2 kg already (94 kg ➡️ 92 kg).
Walking for 2 hours (mostly b4 bed) , and ate 900 calories + 3 liter water or green tea a day . Most hardest thing so far is control the appetite at night lol.
My goal is 70 kg .
Wish me luck 😤
Good luck! If you find your plan too difficult I'd expect you would still make progress with a more moderate approach. Play the long game.

@@AmyLee-ns3uj true
If you do 900 calorie, you might loose muscle which will then lower your metabolic rate.
How is it now? Update
Great video with a reminder that the simplest things can make a huge impact
Thanks! That's exactly right.
I’ve been walking and strength training with kettlebells for about a month now.
The mood and energy boost alone is worth it. I walk between three to four miles a day at a pace that really gets my heart rate going, followed by 20-30 minutes of kettlebell work.
I began to notice the energy increase after about a week, and it feels incredible.
Thanks for sharing that
How many inches have you lost? Or weight? Or sizes? I just started walking and I want to add some weight training, but I can't afford a gym membership. I'd appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!
@@samsmom400 Gym membership not needed. One or two kettlebells and body weight exercises are all you need. Plenty of UA-cam videos available on how to plan your workouts. Good luck, kettlebells are fantastic.
Loved this video. Slow and steady wins the weight loss race
Thank you, and agree!
Walking an hour a day is great, but you still have to watch what you eat and drink.
I walk an hour/day and FINALLY got over my emotional eating...
Exactly....people seem to think you can lose weight by walking / exercise alone. My husband walks about 5 or 6 miles a day, sometimes more but never loses any weight...but that's not the reason he walks, he just likes it. I, who hate walking, would rather eat less than walk or exercise for the amount of time it would take to burn off anything significant ( a lot...too much for me). I've lost 70 lbs in 10 months by changing my eating habits and cutting out alcohol completely ( other than at Christmas, when I regained about 5 lbs in a week...I am convinced the alcohol had a lot to do with it because your body burns off alcohol before anything else)
Daily Walking (average 1 hour).
Heavy Weights (three days weekly).
BJJ Rolling (fives time weekly).
No sugar. Minimal processed foods. Lots of black coffee.
Dropped 50lbs.
Slow & steady is the best as it means one keeps the weight off. Going too fast means putting it all back on. Slow & steady also means exercise becomes part of your lifestyle.
I agree
Walking is so much better than running. I'm 59 and was 292 lbs in Sept 23. I have dropped 68lbs by walking everyday. If you twang a muscle running, your daily exercise is in jeopardy and your routine is interrupted. I walk about 8 kms a day for about an hour. Changed diet, lots of veggies and some protein, fewer carbs. One meal a day. Target is 190 lbs.
Great point about the increased injury risk with running. It's particularly relevant for people who are just starting out with exercise, or returning to it after a long layoff. Good luck with your goals.
The reason why body fat isn't the 454g X 9 calories is because that is a pure fat number but body fat is stored in adipose tissue that is only 85-87% fat for most people. the rest is adipose tissue, water and some nutrients. That's why you have to reduce the amount of calories in a lb of body fat by 13-17% from that 454g X 9 calories number. It's somewhere between 3473 -3700 calories for most of the population.
Also, just subscribed. I am also an environmental engineer so if you ever have questions about the math of anything you can always hit me up and I'll gladly give ya insight.
Appreciate your comment! I looked this up too shortly after posting the video and it's so helpful to have your comment right here for anyone else that might be wondering. Appreciate it.
Walking has been a part of my life for 25 years..ofcourse with occasional breaks due to other commitments. In 50 min walk i lose around 250 calories..in the course of the whole day i lose approximately 1500 cal. My weight is stable at 60kg... why am i not losing weight.
Thank you for your question. It’s difficult to provide personalized advice without a lot more information. What I can say is that if you’re daily energy expenditure is 1500 kcal and your body weight is stable, that suggests your energy intake is also around 1500 kcal. Losing weight requires being in a calorie deficit, so either further increases in activity or reducing calorie intake would be the next steps. Things like eating more protein, drinking lots of water, getting good sleep and doing strength training two or more times per week are other habits that help with weight loss goals.
@@trainforever1142 thanks so much for your reply.. I am 59 years old and 5ft 1inch in height. I do a reasonable intensity workout twice a week. I guess I have to pay attention to my intake of food.

Yes, you can! It took me awhile to become overweight, however it took me awhile to lose it. Weight loss was gradual, the way I wanted it. So enjoyable and easy to do. When covid hit, I found a walk at home program on the net that has worked wonders. Great video, thank you for posting.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
I've walked off 50 lbs in the past year and still going. I also drink tons of water, manage my meds, and most of all- eat better and count my calories.
Thank you so much for the speech. I will change my walking time from 25 minutes to one hour. Again thank you. Covina Ca
I never struggled with weight; swam, walked, but had a bad bout of sciatica and a back injury a few yrs back plus other things so I was virtually in bed for 3 yrs and gained 40 lbs. Ouch you say. I was on a walker at the age of 58 which was unacceptable; I love dogs suddenly no dogs in my life. Physiotherapy and walking have earned me my life back plus a Covid 19 dog --- spend an hour and a half with her outside and am mindful of not lolling in front of the computer which is how i make my living so am mindful and healthy eating etc. I didn't track weight loss but it is obvious I am back to normal. At my age losing weight did result in some loose skin. Who cares????
This may sound breezy but it was HUGE for me. I would say to everyone whether you are losing weight or not; get outside!! It totally fixed my sleep which is huge. Perhaps people are not seeing immediate results; one day at a time and don't go from 0 to 100 which is a recipe for disaster. I started with a fitbit but after learning that I had an old hairline spinal fracture which was playing havoc with all kinds of body alignment i just get in what I can and if I just don't feel like it, Kiwi the miracle dog does, so bound to get out there. Great video, inspiring.
Your story is inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
Allow your body eat itself through IF to shrink the loose skin. Intermittent fasting.
@@InGodwetrust365 Intermittent fasting can certainly work as a weight loss strategy. Your body can use stored fat for fuel as long as you are in a caloric deficit, it doesn't matter if you do IF or not. IF will not shrink loose skin.

I walk an hour per day. Not to lose weight but because it refreshes my mind.
Same here!
Lost 50 pounds in 16 weeks. From 220 to 170. Walking at least 30 minutes and at times an hour a day. But this was combined with a significant calorie deficit. That for me, was too much weight to fast. At about 30 pounds lost my clothes were fitting really good. 20 pounds later I looked not very good in my clothes because I lost muscle as well. But looking good again due to weight training. I should have been doing BOTH at the same time.
Thanks for sharing your story. The role that strength training plays in better weight loss outcomes is still underrated. People like you sharing your story helps. Thanks!
I am about 210lbs and its mostly because I just don't move at all in a day, just sitting in front of my computer. I have regulated the amount of snacks and food I eat, but not so much that I count the calories. So I figured that I could use the gym-membership that I had and just walk on the treadmill every so often for 1 hour. And its not bad, I just set it to a semi-quick walking speed with an incline, place my phone on the machine and just watch some videos while walking. I don't feel sick or tired after doing so, no muscle pains either, which is quite nice. The machine calculates that I am walking off about 420Kcal an hour by doing so, and there are some small results already, like almost no double chin when tilting my head down. Good luck to everyone else.
(I would walk up some trails in the mountain instead, but that would require me to go all the way back again + I have pollen allergy, so walking in nature isn't as comfortable.)
Thank you for sharing your story. Wishing you continued success with your goals. Sounds like you are off to a great start.
I'm going to do an hour a day. I take seizure and heart medicine and can't lose weight. I eat little to none so just frustrated.
Statistics, although interesting to a degree, should not be the benchmark to calculate your goals. Just walk - just exercise - just move - just eat less and enjoy the feeling.
Very science based, nuanced and grounded video. Subscribed 👌
I walk 5 miles at least 3 or 4x a week and if I don’t walk I go to the gym combine with fasting no eating before 6 p.m for two months I lost 16Lbs.
I take a 2 mile walk with my kids every day (Time varies because small kids. When they stop I effectively do laps around them until we get going again. I lost 2kg in the first week. Next weigh in is 2 days and I pair it now with 1.5hrs of paced weight training. I feel great.
I have lost a lot of my belly fat but my scales are broken, they say I’ve lost nothing. Started at 76.5, today they still said 76.5. 😥
Noticing physical changes and feeling good mean a lot more than any number on the scale.

Intermittent fasting works really well for some people, not as well for others. Physical activity and healthy eating are prerequisites for good health. Intermittent fasting is very much optional.

I eat once a day till I'm full with no snacks and I'm good to go. Humans didn't evolve to be eating all the time. I don't really call it fasting it's just what I do day in day out.

In response to your question about calories in fat, according to a Healthline article, "Body fat is mixed with fluid and protein. Therefore, its composition and calorie content are not the same as pure fat," and "Body fat tissue is 87% fat." Using 87% gets you to around 3500.
Thank-you for this video and thanks to those who share their success stories. Reading about success helps my motivation. I currently walk about 2-3 miles/day 6x/week. The thought of working up to 10000 steps/day (about 5 miles) can be overwhelming. Any tips on staying motivated would be appreciated.
Do it in small chunks throughout the day.
I do 10 thousand steps most days even have done 17 000 steps but it's from exercise, does this count
Pace yourself. Don't worry about the 10k steps, just walk until you're unable to go further, distract yourself by listening to an audiobook or favorite playlist and just walk. Check your steps when you're done and you praise yourself for any step(s) taken because you're better than you were yesterday. Hope this helps because it did for me! Happy steps! 👏
I can hit 10,000 if I break up my walks during the day. So a 20 min walk to work, hour long walk during lunch and 30 min walk home from work will usually get me to around 10K. Break up the walks and it will add up 😊
You can follow the video that do 5,000 steps. Do it twice and you get 10,000 steps or you can on some sport music or some music and walk. I find it easier to walk if i put music on.
I was going to say while cooking, cleaning, a walk for one or two hours a day and cutting out sweats sodas, chips , cooking my own meals and adding cinamon on your favorite foods like. Apples some breads and eat proteins I am losing weight.
At 6:05 you state you’ve always heard that fat has 3,500 calories per gram, but I’ve always heard it was 3,500 calories per pound which puts it at a little under 9 calories per gram since there’s 454~ grams in a pound - not sure if you misspoke or if the sources were off by much more than you previously pointed out

Any recommendations for best walking shoes? Ever since I hit 40yrs old a few years ago my feet get sore easier. So far my adidas are my best ones but even those don’t perfectly reduce it. I’ve been doing 30 min of walking in am and 30 in pm recently. I did put on quite a bit of weight the last 6-7 years (just kept climbing up- totaling like 50-60 lbs). So maybe the weight gain has also contributed to my feet sore easier. My weight used to be pretty consistent in my younger years, only fluctuating up or down about 10 lbs. even after having kids it dropped back down to normal quickly. So ever since scale started climbing I’ve been quite shocked how I could let it get so high. I hope walking helps me change direction. I know I’ve got to lower sugar intake too. I’ve never been a soda or juice drinker, just water, but I love my chocolate and cookies. And I ate cleaner in my 20’s avoiding processed stuff. Somehow I’ve gotten off track.
Thanks for your comment. There's no exact best shoe, it really depends on the person and what's going on with their feet. The employees at high quality running shoe stores can often give some basic insight. Whatever feels comfortable and allows you to do more activity with less pain is generally the way to go. Doing that while also building foot and leg strength with various exercises is a great two pronged approach to help reduce pain while also building capacity. Good luck!
Hoka is a really good brand to go with
I do official workouts 4x per week. Two are lower body + hill sprints and two are upper body push and pull workouts. But...walking is my main priority.
It relieves stress, curbs hunger, helps recovery, and burns a lot of cals with basically no real effort. On average I do 15-25K steps every...single...day. 👍
Nice
I walked one hour 4 days a week for two months and didn't lose an ounce of weight, nor did my measurements change. I'm on a low carb diet and eat 2 meals a day, no snacks. I did not increase or decrease my caloric intake.
Apparently nothing causes me to lose fat except for adding muscle.
I lost 25 pounds on keto and time restricted eating and have maintained it for 4 years but I'm stuck. I'm going to try strength training again. When I had to stop strength training due to surgery (and then got out of the habit) I stopped losing weight. I hoped walking would help. I have more stamina but no help with the stubborn plateau.
If you go 100% vegan you can get to 10-12% body fat and completely change your physique

Could I just ask? Is it best to walk on an empty stomach? I walk briskly between 1 hour and 1 hour 25 minutes a day. Yet my weight remains the same. Thank you and excellent advice
Thanks for your question. It doesn't make that much of a difference to fat loss outcomes whether you exercise on an empty stomach or not. It all comes down to energy balance and the factors that contribute to either side of that equation. Things that tend to contribute to successful are lots of walking, lifting weights 2-4 times per week, eating whole foods and hitting a protein target, getting lots of sleep, drinking lots of water and managing stress. Whenever someone I'm working with is trying to lose weight, those are the things we explore, focus on and make changes around. If all of those pieces of the puzzle aren't in place, that's usually the reason for not seeing the desired results. Good luck with your training.
This was helpful. Thanks 😊
How many calories do I loose if I walk 1.5 hours?
I really can't say. 300-500 / hour of walking is a good approximation. Body size and speed of walking have the biggest impact on that number. Any other number of factors unique to the person can also play a role. Good luck.
I walk at least 150 minutes a day every single day both indoors and outdoors.
it is 3500cal per pound in human fat tissue because of non fat in that pound such as water.
I have been walking consistently approx 4-5 days a week for 45 minutes to an hour for 5 months.(Tracking it and it's approx 300 miles.) I haven't lost any weight but haven't gained. My question is, have I built up muscle, which weighs more than fat, so it balanced out? Hope that made sense. Thanks
It depends on a number of factors.
If you picked up walking from after a year on bedrest, then yes you will build up muscles.
Also noteworthy is your consistency. Perhaps doing it everyday is the key. Perhaps you burn the same number of calories as you accumulate over the 3 non-walking days.
Maybe you changed your diet to accommodate your cravings of carbs and fats.
Depends how the calorie /food intake
Its doubtful you added any significant muscle weight. You may want to make some adjustments to what you are eating. Even people lifting weights often will say they added 10-20 lbs of muscle. The majority of them are wrong as it really takes time to add 20 lbs of muscle for any average person without drugs.
In the pedometer app to make sure I burn what I'm actually burning I set my personal info weight to 30 lb man and it says I burn 1 cal per minute, that way I overshoot instead of under shoot. That combined with making sure my lifts aren't slacking from the calorie deficit I can eat whatever I want.
After how long do you recover from walking?
Depends on the person as well as the speed and duration of the walk. Generally speaking, quite quickly, as it's a low impact, low intensity exercise. That's one of the benefits.
I am motivated. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Pure fat has about 4,000 calories per gram, yes, but body fat only has 3,500 calories per gram because body fat is mixed with fluid and protein. Its composition and calorie content are not the same as *pure* fat.
I would walk more but it’s hard in Switzerland with all the crime and lack of trails..and just all flat and boring.
Those are real barriers. I hope you can find the exercise/physical activity plan that works for you.
It takes me an hour to burn 300 calories at a speed setting of 3.2 according to my treadmill. I thought that was a pretty good pace, but now I'm feeling a bit dejected seeing that people are moving at much faster paces and moving further in that same hour of time.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Something that I think is really important when working improving our fitness level is to stick to competing with ourselves and not others. Everyone's on their own path. 3.2 is a fine speed. I have a client who started at 2.5 and has built herself up to 2.8. She's noticed a difference and is proud of her progress, and she should be! Keep working hard and the results will keep coming. Good luck.
I walk 3 hours
Walking before eating. How much weight lose depending what is the diet and BMI
Not enough information to answer that question, sorry. I can say that the exact timing of when you walk vs when you eat is not that important.
As you lose weight do you need to walk more or add weights to burn the same calories?
It’s not always necessary to maintain the same level of caloric deficit as you lose weight. If the size of the deficit decreases, the rate of weight loss will slow down, but this is expected as one reaches their goal weight. In these stages of weight loss patience might be a better approach than additional activity or reduction in calories consumed, although all of those options can be explored as well. As for adding walking or strength training that depends on the current structure of the program, goals, and other lifestyle factors
@@trainforever1142 thank you. I only have 5 more to go.
Rachel Carter nice! Keep going and you’ll get there!
Thank you!
my mom looked it up my weight and height and it said ill burn 400 kcal walking a hour??
I can't say for certain but that's a reasonable number.
@@trainforever1142 okayy thanks
Does your apple 🍎 watch accurately measure 📏 the calories properly burned by exercising? I exercise about 2.5 hours a day and that is the minimum amount I exercise daily. Some days I exercise up to 3 hours 45 minutes a day!
They are as accurate as any other readily available consumer product. Not perfect but should be fairly close. And they are consistent within themselves, so you can track the relationship between energy expended as recorded by the apple watch and any other outcome, like weight lost, or energy levels, etc, and make decisions based on that.
I've been walking over 10,000 steps per day (when my average without trying is about 5,000) and being careful with what I eat for about 3 weeks now and I've experienced no weight loss whatsoever.
I don't eat a lot of sugar, rarely get take away foods and only drink alcohol on the weekends.
No weight loss at all. Nada.
U cant be sure unless u can count how mach ur calorie intake vs burnt
You won't notice much in 3 weeks or maybe none at all..give it time I was into my 3rd month before I noticed it starting to shift,an it's only when I started to walk up hills that I moved about 10 kg.keep at it and you will get there,but it takes time.
@@scorpiontail2561 No, i stopped relying on walking alone for weight loss - its just not enough. I reduced my calorie intake, started intermittent fasting and diversified my exercise regime - walking, running, swimming, biking - whatever I'm feeling that day.
I've lost about 4 kgs now.
@@CyeOutsider 4kg is a good amount of weight to lose.if you are still able to run,that's a great exercise and will help you lose weight(depending on distance run and speed).at 52 I would probably pull muscles or damage ligaments, which does you no good,if I started running.
The higher the intensity of your exercises,,the more you'll burn off,but make sure you don't damage yourself.👍
Remember that you become more efficient when doing a repeated sequence exercise.... Therefore less energy burned. Also if you are losing Bodyweight, less of you to move,less energy required.
Keep doing what you are doing,just don't get frustrated at slower Bodyfat loss over time.
I was swimming an hour a day before covid. Afraid of indoor pools and locker rooms now, so got myself a treadmill. I walk 6 days per week about 3 to 3.5 miles per hour for an hour with in and out of small inclines (after that, I just feel like I am going to crazy with boredom). I can't jog (bad knees). I am just gaining pound after pound. No change in diet. What to do?
Hi Ruth, thanks for your question. I can't comment on your specific situation. Something that has been happening a lot since covid is people are experiencing a significant reduction in non-exercise activity. Someone who may have worked in an office and done their grocery shopping in person before may now work from home and do curbside pickup. This, plus many other small changes, can really add up over the long run. Replacing this non-exercise activity has been a challenge for many people.
You answered your question. Why haven’t you changed your diet? Weight loss is more about calories in vs calories out, and less about exercise.
What speed of walking are we talking about here?
Brisk
Bro this guy is blinking once each 2 minutes holys.
Not human! I kept trying to figure out when he was gonna blink!
First I must say thank you for this video. But my question is will I lose weight from my thigh when walking?
My weight is 214 and I want to lose weight from my thigh because I believe it's affecting my knees
Please reply it would be grateful
Thanks
Good question! What you're describing is something known as spot reduction, where we deliberately try to lose fat in a specific body part. This isn't possible. The good news is that a healthy weight loss plan will result in fat being lost throughout the body. Good luck.
@@trainforever1142 thank you
Great video!
Well explained
My weight is 95kg. Height 5feet 8 inch. How much time i need to walk daily to loos 3kg weight per month. How much calories need to intake.
I really can't say. I typically recommend walking for an hour most days of the week when looking to use walking as part of a weight loss strategy. How that will work for a particular person depends on a lot of factors. I can't give personalized nutrition recommendations in a format like this. Good luck.
I need to lose some lbs maybe 10 in 3 weeks any suggestions?
"Energy in/energy out" is a very simplified explanation because it fails to take into account that if you are fat then you're going to be insulin resistant; so unless you tackle the insulin resistance, then all you'll achieve is to yo-yo your weight and probably end up fatter.
However, as walking is easier on the body, you will lose an amount of weight until the body lowers your Basel Metabolic Rate to compensate
Energy in/out is a simple concept that can become complex as you investigate the factors that contribute to each side of the equation. The existence of insulin resistance doesn't invalidate the energy balance model. Could it be that an insulin resistant person is more likely to store excess energy as fat rather than expend it or excrete it? Sure. But all energy into the system must still be accounted for in some way.
Insulin resistance improves or resolves mostly through the reduction of body fat. This loss of body fat can be achieved through restricting carbohydrates, but more fundamentally and universally, will result from a calorie deficit. Restricting carbs can achieve that calorie deficit. So can other methods such as calorie restriction, or increasing physical activity (usually both).
The current evidence does not support the carbohydrate insulin model of obesity: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9071483/

@@leestockton9367 Thomas DeLauer is widely regarded as a charlatan in the exercise science community. You might enjoy the work of Layne Norton, or Brad Schoenfeld. Wishing you the best with your training and fitness goals. Have a great day.
@@trainforever1142 Really, then please explain why a PLETHORA of other people of reputation promote Intermittent Fasting as the way to reduce insulin resistance and therefore the restriction that prevents weight loss.
You may prefer to do your research properly and be less closed to other ideas because it appears to me that you have a vested financial interest in promoting the hokom of calorific restriction.
If you restrict calories, your body will adapt and lower your Basel Metabolic Rate, then what do you do; reduce your calories even further, train more - it's unsustainable as a method of weight loss and for maintaining a healthy weight thereafter
@@leestockton9367 Good question. I can't speak to why certain people promote certain things. Some are probably trying to promote what they think helps people. Other people are trying to get views and likes or sell their book. You see a lot of both these days. What about all the people promoting keto? Or carnivore? Are they all right as well?
To be clear, I never said there was anything wrong with intermittent fasting. I only criticized Thomas Delauer specifically, and I stand by that.
I think fasting can be great. I know it works for a lot of people. In terms of weight loss, it works by creating an energy deficit, by restricting the window within with a person eats. All diets work this way. Keto restricts calories by restricting an entire macronutrient group. Low fat diets work the same way, just a different macronutrient. I'm not advocating for any one particular diet, and in my own coaching practice, use different approaches, including fasting, if that's what will work best for the person for a long period of time.
What is not true, is this idea that intermittent fasting is inherently superior to other methods when calories are matched:
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31614992/
If we're talking about insulin resistance, here's a meta analysis that shows definite benefit of IF when compared to control, but WORSE outcomes for insulin resistance compared to caloric restriction:
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35586738/
Crucially, the authors note that many studies reported participants having an easier time sticking to IF protocols, and that's significant.
Bit of a different topic, but just for fun, this one compared low carb to moderate carb diets on weight loss outcomes and found they worked equally well:
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35088407/
Again, I have nothing against fasting. I honestly think it's great if that's what a person wants to do. I am though, opposed to the idea that it is inherently superior to other dietary approaches to weight loss because the evidence does not support that.
Is walking one hour everyday actually good for belly fat train forever?
Yes. It’s one of many things that a person can do to help reduce belly fat, as well as provide several other health benefits. Walking on its own may not be enough to create substantial change in body composition. Other things that help are eating protein from plant or animal sources, vegetables, drinking lots of water, getting restful sleep, eating less processed food and doing strength training 2-4x per week
