[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just got back from a run and everyone is very thin. I'm 130 and I am always the fattest person I see on my runs. I think the notion that diet is almost the sole determinant to be thin is wrong. I also think this theory could discourage people from exercise unnecessarily, which is a shame. [/quote] Its a combination of a small sample size (a few people you see on your run) combined with some cognitive bias (you filter out people who dont fit in with your theory). Diet is much more key than exercise when it comes to weight loss. [/quote] Plus jogging will lose its effectiveness very fast as your body metabolism adjusts. Unless it's used with other forms of exercise body composition won't change much. Also diet has to be good.[/quote]
