In this Monday Myth Buster, we are joined by Ally Bowersock, who is the Director of Exercise Science for the Jefferson College of Health Sciences we are focusing on diet and exercise.
Karen: Some people think that all I have to do is work out to meet my weight loss goals or to maintain my weight?
Ally: That is a myth, actually you need to focus more on dietary changes first and exercise second a lot of people when they start an exercise program...tend to overestimate the amount of calories the've burned so they actually eat more calories and end up gaining weight. It's more important that folks focus on dietary changes first, exercise second and both combined will help you reach your goals faster.
