Going extra hard in the gym and just eating "whatever" isn't really a great idea if you want to make tangible progress in improving body composition. 😬

While exercise is an important part of the energy balance equation, remember that it’s only a tool. Although it may add several hundred calories to our TEE, we will still burn thousands of more calories throughout the day from general activity, organ functions, and even sleep!👍

Also, because it’s so hard to accurately guess the calorie expenditure from exercise, it’s not a good idea to assume you’ve burned a certain number of “extra” calories from working out.

The best way to ensure fat loss is to control your macros and calories, and make sure that number is smaller than your calorie expenditure for the day.

But whatever exercise you choose for your journey, remember that you have to push yourself in order to get results. New exercise styles that boast huge calorie burns with less effort are always too good to be true.
