Extreme Weight Loss Solution

Until now saw the whole issue of exercise and nutrition as a kind of financial exchange that worked with mathematical precision. It was a “deposit” in the form of strenuous training session and then allowed me the luxury of “withdraw funds, putting purple from time to time. I thought that this would not incur a “debt” dietary greasy take me to a bankruptcy. The system worked? until, a few months ago, I started to gain weight.

Not that much, around about 7 or 8 kilos, but it is more than enough for some of my favorite shirts are me too “tailored.” Not to mention those jeans that I had to banish the back of the cupboard, waiting for better times …

To eliminate them, a man of my weight (83kg) would have to run 29km. Exactly: 8km heating and then a half marathon.

Do you think little? For an even more graphic example: to burn the beer, potatoes, pizza and wine, Usain Bolt would have to run nonstop for 23 minutes at 37 km / h: the average speed achieved in the 100 meters. Needless to say he can not. And neither do you. What is the moral of this story? That our caloric intake tends to exceed the amount of exercise we can do to compensate. In other words, every Friday greasy plunges us a little more in the well of the bulge.
