I don't know a thing in this area but I know that when something looks too good to be true, it probably isn't.
- zaven 4y agoNo I think what they’re saying is if you do this exercise for hours while seated, you will have the increased metabolism and its benefits the whole time without getting tired.
- lostlogin 4y ago> when something looks too good to be true, it probably isn't. Is that a typo or are you a very lucky individual?
- anikan_vader 4y ago>> It probably isn't [true].
- tsimionescu 4y agoI think they mean, when something looks too good to be true, it probably isn't [true] (though that's not how the phrase is normally used, of course).

- ericmcer 4y agoMaybe you just have elevated mood and energy levels for a few hours? One of the nasty parts of dieting is that you can cut calories and not lose weight, just have less energy and feel worse. Probably not as relevant if your obese but cutting calories leads to some other effects than weight loss when your already lean. Conversely if your weight is stable you might be able to add 500 calories with no ill effects, just more energy, faster recovery etc. It would be great if it was just formulaic like your post implies but it isn’t.
