Diet vs. Exercise, 80% of Weight Lose Is Diet

You can spend half a day every day at the gym. You can spend thousand on gym equipment, but if you don't fix your diet you won't lose the fat. Read the post from VeryWell.com and get the truth from the experts.

Why Nutrition Is Key to Losing Body Fat

Apply a Nutritional Strategy

A person can change their body composition through diet alone without exercise. However, it's the combination of both that provides a complete healthy package. Applying the 80 percent nutrition to 20 percent fitness rule is simply a statement of the importance of nutrition in the equation.
Exercise would not be a complete waste of time without eating healthy, but it would be like swimming upstream not making any headway to changing your body composition. We have all seen the regulars at the gym doing the same thing day-in and day-out for several months or even years without seeing results in fat loss.
The puzzlement can be answered simply in that a low in nutrition diet is holding them back from reaching their fitness goals.

Common Questions

Common questions heard in the fitness industry and addressing fitness goals are “what percentage of my goals will be a result of exercise, and what percentage will be a result of my diet?”
Usual answers would be “they are both important, but percentages can’t really be assigned,” or the well-known “100 percent training and 100 percent diet.” Vague answers like this don't address the big picture, especially to novice trainees starting their fitness journey to physique improvement.
The best answer would be that nutrition has the largest impact on body changes than exercise and tossing all percentages aside.

Nutrition and Exercise Logic

Let’s take percentages out of the equation for now and apply some logic to exercise and nutrition. The norm exerciser may perform three to four weight training sessions and three to four cardio workouts per week, totaling eight sessions per week.
This gives eight opportunities to make a positive change in your body through exercise. That same person eats three healthy meals per day. If knowledgeable in the value of meal spacing, they may eat five to six times per day.
Quick math shows 21 to 35 chances per week to directly and positively impact fat burning and muscle building goals through nutrition.

You Are What You Eat

Utilizing the above example, nutrition is clearly the winner in physique improvement opportunities. In fact at 21 to 35 chances per week to improve body composition through nutrition, the percentage does come in around 80 percent.
This leaves 20 percent of physique enhancement resulting from exercise. The assessment of nutrition versus exercise is pretty accurate given the numbers.
It also indicates if you want to look good, applying 80 percent of your focus to eating right is a necessary component. There is something to “you are what you eat” and how it relates to making positive body changes.

Apply the 80:20 Rule for Results

Have you read success stories of dramatic weight loss? At the forefront of their accomplishments are improved nutritional programs and diets. Some have shared application of drastic food changes and also healthier methods of cooking and eating before starting an exercise program.
This began the journey of their success and adding in the workouts was the bonus that made it all come together. It was important to master a healthy nutrition plan. They also understood it as the largest role in being able to reach fitness goals.
It may be nice to think positive body changes can be made simply by exercising, but that's far from the truth. Applying the 80:20 rule creates the difference and understanding food will be the major player in how you look.
