Are you working out enough?

Here is a link to an article that is summarizing a weight loss study.

The bottom line is we are starting to realize that although any exercise is good exercise light exercise a couple days a week is not going to cut it. If you are trying to lose weight and keep it off you need to step it up. This study had participants exercising twice as much as the recommended amount of 30 minutes. They increased to around 60 minutes a day for 5 days a week. These were the ones that lost weight and kept it off. Can you find 5 hours in your week to exercises? If you can't then you aren't looking hard enough or your health isn't a top priority.

Don't count your daily dog walk for 30 minutes as your exercise for the day. It is time to step it up and burn some calories. Get to the gym, run outside, go for a swim, .... your options are endless.
