Frustrating, isn’t it?
You read about weight loss ideas, implement it but it fails to deliver.
I don’t blame the ideas, there is a good reason why it fails.
Lot of experts talk about exercise like walking, cycling, running, weight lifting and other high intensity workouts for easing lower back pain or to lose weight.
While they are correct, the logical reason why this approach fails is because you ignore the diet.
If we adopt a scientific approach to lose weight, fat assimilation will never ever be a problem.
The approach should be to focus on 70% diet and 30% other things such as workouts, rest and controlling stress.
If you do 70% right and 30% not so well, still you will be in reasonable shape.
