Being overweight. What you eat MOSTLY dictates your weight. Your fitness level MOSTLY only impacts your medium-long term health. Yes, broad strokes, but more true than untrue. Being overweight and trying not to be overweight requires a LOT of mental energy and trying to fight the sugar addiction/control diet is genuinely exhausting. If I got fit, I'd still be fat, and it would sap the little mental energy I have to spare that I use for weight loss/control at the moment. It may also give me a false sense of achievement. Plus if I'm not careful I could fuck up my knees indefinitely. I look at fitness goals as something I'd do when I am in the "Overweight" BMI region rather than the "Obese" one. But even then I'd likely look at HIIT[0] because I think I'd do it more consistently than several hours at the gym (even if it has less health gains, it is "good enough").
