how is that possible? Where is the energy they use to walk coming from? How are they able to move more but expend the same amount of energy?

Really efficient walking style
Body fat is determined by diet, not by exercise. Exercise increases your strength, endurance, and cardiovascular capacity.
>>36450325
> evidence shows metabolism slows down as we lose weight.
wow, we're onto something here guys.
Is this satire? I'm not sure I get it. Like, the graphs look like they have been cooked by a 10 year old, and they also contradict the writing next to them.
On the other hand, the paper looks kinda serious, even if from a first glance the articles do not hold much substance.
Is this what american press is like? I thought Spiderman exaggerated this but I'm not american so :/

Also because a tanzanian forager weighs half as much as some fat asshole, and thus does literally less work despite walking farther
>>36450264
'working out' to most people is like going on a treadmill for 15 minutes
>>36450782
The article was put up by some sjw named Olga khazan. There was no sources in the article.
90% of people waste time in a gym. They do inefficient exercises that do nothing whatsoever, and use it as a justification to pig out later in the evening. It makes sense, really
>>36450841
err no its more than exercise alone is not an effective means to lose weight.
you can spend 1 hour on a treadmill and consume more calories than you just burnt in 15 seconds by eating a candy bar.
>>36450762
Efficiency probably. A fat shit walking a mile is going to use up more energy than a 5'2" 120 pound African with 25+ years of practice moving slowly across a near barren plateau for two miles.
>>36450859
>>36450841
basically a combination of these factors could literally explain OP's clickbait thread.

Where's that study where fatties self-reported vastly lower food intake and vastly higher activity than they actually had?
>>36450969
you need to see it again?
>>36450786
They controlled for body mass, sex and age:
"In a multivariate analysis controlling for sex, age, and body mass, TEE among Hadza hunter-gatherers did not differ (t(155)=−0.35, p=0.73) from populations in market economies (Fig. 2, Table S1). Only farming populations had greater TEE than predicted for their body size."
>>36450776
>>36450866
"While the Hadza likely perform traditional foraging tasks (e.g., digging tubers or chopping tree limbs for honey) more efficiently than unacculturated Westerners can [34], comparisons of activities common across cultures do not indicate that Hadza muscle and locomotor physiology inherently more efficient."
>>36450762
[Possible explanations] "For example, work with Ache foragers in Paraguay has shown that levels of leptin, critical in fat sequestration, and testosterone, an anabolic hormone, are substantially lower than levels seen in U.S. adults [42], [43]. And studies of pregnant and lactating women in traditional cultures have shown that changes in both behavior (e.g., work load) and physiology (e.g., BMR) enable them to maintain TEE at levels similar to those of their Western counterparts [44], [45]."
Tl;dr the Hazda have a lower BMR than westerners- due to physiology, not size. Low BMR + High Physical Activty = High BMR + Low Physical Activitys = TDEE.

Stopped reading. Enjoy being correct ten years ago.

obesity rate in america is now at 0.00001%.............in 1398
>>36450264
go read our sticky, it's very clear that diet is everything when it comes to how much you weigh
a "workout" might only burn 300 cals, that's like one candy bar, if someone "works out" 3x per week they are only burning like one meal of food, and when all their meals are high calorie garbage they will remain fat forever
you don't lift weights to burn fat, you do it to get stronger
you don't run to burn calories, you do it to make your heart stronger and you more capable of physical endurance
>>36450762
>how is that possible? Where is the energy they use to walk coming from? How are they able to move more but expend the same amount of energy?
walking is very efficient, you burn pretty much the same amount of calories either just sitting there typing or walking
maybe when you are just sitting around your body does things like work to digest food or create hormones or other internal body stuff, maybe when you walk around it stops doing some internal body functions and waits for you to sit down again, maybe those functions burn the same calories as walking
also as it has been said, walking does not burn many cals

literally physically not true.
i havent read a more incorrect statement today.
>>36450762
Your body can massively alter the amount of energy it expends on biological processes
This is how someone doing shit in the Arctic can burn 3000 more cals than a person doing the same shit in the jungle. It upregulated to.keep you warm.

Ok?
