Wanna get cut??? Walk!!!

[Babyfaced Assassin]

So this weekend i was out from friday to monday over in Holland on a vacation to go watch some fights up there
anyway whlst ii tried to eat the best i could, it's difficult eating great while away so i had to eat as much protein as i could but was eating stuff like white bread, white rice... sometimes potato chips etc but made sure to get good proteins like salmon, chicken etc with each meal.

Anyway we would eat and then walk about 2 or 3 miles so whilst i wasn't eating the best i was always physisically active. And i noticed that instead of gaining weight, i lost weight and look alot more cut up!!!

I guess walking around is the reason

I guess it's walking in combination with a good metabolism. I find that even if I rarely eat cheat meals, I seems to not gain any weight from it. My body is probably at so much difficency from these kinds of foods that it's so 'hungy' for this stuff, it uses it for energy.. But I guess walking also helps

Yup! It also keeps an aerobic activity just that...........aerobic!
Many under my tutelage ask me if they can RUN for cardio, and I say NO! Makes an aerobic activity anaerobic, and you don't want that for fat burning purposes.

Congrats on your success!

I would power walk if i didnt look like such an idiot

lol @ powerwalking, there is a neighbour who does that, he looks so silly.

do an hour of walking and an hour of running. You'll burn more fat running; however the differences is in the ratio of fat:carbohydrates burned... walking burns a greater ratio of fat to carbohydrates than does running.

LOL@Clean!!!!!!! I agree that walking is great! If I eat a cheat meal of junk, I am Fucked! I gain fat soooo eaisily I used to have a supa fast metabolism when I was younger. I tore my ACL when I was 16, and I sat around for 3 months and did nothing but eat! I gained like 30lbs. I am 5'7, And I was 155 back then, I am 23 now, weighed 190lbs last year, Now I am back to 157 Most of the people that I have met who are on the Atkins diet do not exercise at all. I tell them all the time that they would loose soo much more weight if they walked 1-2 miles a day!!! Personally I run 3 miles, 4 times a week and I am in my 2nd week of CKD!!This diet is great!!!

I believe that is exactly what my aforementioned statement is inclusive of in cognitive meaning, yes.

Try walking hills.

This really gets the heart rate up too.
