I know a dude who did this with a standing desk and an exercise bike when WOW was huge and he put on 20kg in a year.

I did it during covid / work from home times.

Every time I was in a boring work meeting I just got on the spin bike. Lost 6kg.

Probably because I stopped eating all the pastries at work.

Weight loss is almost 100% about calorie control, the exercise is just a great bonus.

[–] thrawn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

In the context of weight loss, exercise is used primarily for calorie control anyway. Tho people who don’t know that can uptick calories to make up for the exercise and lose nothing or even gain more. Which obv you know but maybe someone out there is struggling with that

You cannot outrun a bad diet.

Still you have deal with genetic. If you are born with a kind of body any exercise will be useless. As begin old as well. You can be slim but having a fat belly and big hips. So....hope you as Anon are born without this genetic traits...

Not true

Calorie deficit = weight loss.

Everything else makes no sense. Fat is just stored calories and if your daily calorie burn is higher than what you take in, you have to use your reserves = "burn" fat = lose weight.
