Move more. Eat less. We have all heard it, but what does it mean exactly? The problem is that this advice, mantra or whatever you would like to call it, is too vague. Moreover, when an individual with questionable or no credentials shouts it to us without quantifying it or supporting it with solid "evidence-based" suggestions then you have come face to face with those individuals with ulterior motives feeding on your sense of insecurity and lack of health and fitness education.
In fact I referred to this very topic just recently. An individual eating nothing but "junk food" throughout the day could interpret "eat less" as meaning he or she could order small fries rather than large fries or eat 2 slices of greasy pizza rather than 3. After all, that would constitute eating less, right? Of course not. This is precisely when nutritional guidance and education by licensed, registered and certified professionals is paramount.. As for "move more"... so many Americans simply do not know how to even pick up an object off of the floor correctly let alone engage in proper and safe compound multi-joint weight-lifting exercises. These individuals need real instruction on both cardiovascular and anaerobic form and technique as well as how to navigate and operate within their own home and workplace environments. It is so much more complex than just move more, eat less, yet quite straightforward. Most Americans are indeed more than capable of achieving health and fitness success if they can stop feeding into the frenzy of not only misinformation, but in reality all the "disinformation" disseminated by those who do not have their best interests in mind.
