Why We Get Fat
Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it. A follow up to his New York Times best seller, Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century, none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat, and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue.

When something is good, more of something is even better, right? No, not necessarily. Researchers are learning that shorter bursts of exercise may do as well (if not better) than longer, slower endurance exercise… hence the popularity of HIIT (high intensity interval training) workouts.

Strength training is not much different. Don’t think that doing 10 sets of bench press is better for you than three because that’s not necessarily the case. There’s a law of diminishing returns.

Not sure how to workout more efficiently or having a hard time finding shorter workouts? Programs like 10-minute Trainer, T25, and the newly released P90X3 help you get high quality total body workouts in 30 minutes or less.

Exercise smart! Don’t workout longer if shorter will do the trick.

I was feeling defeated and frustrated with my health due to a chronic illness, but Matthew and the group met me where I was at and provided the balance of grace and truth that I needed. I lost 10 lbs during my first challenge, but more importantly I learned to be faithful with my responsibilities (eating well, exercising, etc.) and to trust God with the rest.
