Does running help you lose weight

Diet isn’t critical, but studies show runners tend to eat healthier as they implement their training.

In my transcon races it was clear: after several weeks one reaches the ideal running weight.

I have found that when you eat you are adding carlories to yourself. When you eat more you add more calories and when you eat less you add less calories. The more calories you eat the heavier you become and the less you eat the lighter you become. It is the same as running. When you run you burn calories, which you eat. The more you run the more calories you burn. Burning calories means there are less inside you so when there are less calories inside you, you become literally lighter.

Wow thank you for all the helpful answers! Thanks to your answers and the method I use, I managed to lose 3 lbs already! I will continue to observe the results and write about them when I find my free time

It was pretty obvious right from your first post that you were just a spammer. Much more patient then most though, so well done I guess.

I wonder if running help you lose weight. How much it helps?

Yes, running helps, probably more than any other activity.

That's like asking if your stomach becomes full after gorging at a buffet. The answer is so ridiculously obvious that I am surprised anyone is asking this question.

This is literally the best, most concise explanation of runnning and weight maintenance I have seen in years.

Backpacking is the best weight-loss method.

Haha I really liked this form of physical activity., but I stopped about a year ago.

If you wanna know already lost 8.5 lbs

9.5 lbs less than the beginning, I'm super positive

11 lbs lost so far!! Great result!

Losing weight stopped for a moment, but it's good. I dropped 11.7 lbs altogether and I am still using my method and see how it will be

Well done but not overcooked.... wrote:

It's that you quoting your own post using an anonymous handle? Just asking because that explanation is too long winded to be concise and is a little on the ... dim side.

This is the same spam self-promotion as on another running message board. Same exact junk.

Get a life.

You should be posting on

reddit.com/r/running

That site will be MUCH more beneficial to your running and motivation starting out.

Yes BUT...

1. Running is catabolic. Worst case scenario, but still quite frequent, you end up being skinny fat.

2. 90% of weight lose is diet, exercise is mostly for health reasons.

3. Running often makes you more hungry.

4. Excessive cardio makes you release lots of cortisol. This doesn't help weight lose/way you wan to look.

So, combine cardio and lifting weights for optimal weight loss and body recomp.

Step 1 ) Hand back your Cert because it is not worth the paper it is written on

Step 2 ) Google the origins of Somatotypes

Step 3) Learning about how fat is actually burned (hint it is not in sweat)

It is no wonder the obesity levels in this country are so high when even the "professionals" haven't a clue what they are talking about
