HCG Diet Discourages Exercise — Helpful for Weight Induced, Sedentary Individuals

Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) November 25, 2009

Studies show that obesity can cause physical health issues such as stressed joints, osteoarthritis, tendonitis and overuse injures. HCG Diet Direct is reaching out to those who find exercise difficult because of their weight. The HCG Diet protocol discourages exercise during the weight loss plan because the limited caloric intake won’t support intense exercise. Allowed exercise on the HCG Diet is typically stretching or other low cardio exercise like walking for 20 minutes or less.

“The HCG Diet is appropriate for individuals that need to lose as little as 26 pounds to those individuals that are obese. Many overweight to obese individuals are sedentary because of their weight. Exercise and simple movements such as walking are difficult and painful,” says Jennie Boynton of HCG Diet Direct. “Weight is amplified through the body and causes increased pressure on the feet. One pound of body weight equals three pounds of force on the foot when walking. If you lighten that load, walking can become pleasurable again.”

Weight issues are also said to decrease the body’s ability to heal quickly and efficiently. An overweight person with an injury like a sprained ankle or broken foot would not heal as fast as an individual of a healthy weight. Similarly, an individual in better shape will heal faster from surgery. “There are so many benefits to losing the extra weight. HCG is not a long term diet, but a diet that can jumpstart a change in lifestyle, and get you eating better and actively moving again.”

5 Things The Most Effective Diet And Exercise Plans Share

One of the benefits of evaluating and reviewing diet and exercise plans is that I get to see the common elements that all effective programs contain. That's lead me to create my own rating system which allows me to look at popular diets on the market and have a common baseline for how to judge them. Many people choose diets simply because they are referred to us by friends or family. There is nothing wrong with that, we all trust recommendations from people we know. However simply because a diet program works for one person doesn't mean it will work for you. Here are five things the most effective diet and exercise plans have in common from the research and analysis I have done:

1. Moderate Weight Loss Over Time - This is probably the most important element in successful weight loss. First of all, it's the most healthy for you. Be wary of both results and the impacts to your long term health from quick weight loss programs. 2 to 3 pounds per week is a sufficient rate of loss that is considered healthy.
2. Achievable Exercise Goals - Several of the most popular diet and exercise plans promote the building of muscle to increase your metabolic rate. The theory is that by increasing muscle mass you burn calories more quickly. They also typically shy away from aerobic activity as a primary means of exercise. While it is true that sheer aerobic activity (running, swimming, etc...) probably is less effective for overall weight loss, simply trying to build muscle doesn't necessarily equate to good overall health. Look for programs where the exercise component is achievable and enjoyable for you over the long term.
3. Active Food Preparation - This is one of the most important elements in being to lose weight effectively. The act of preparing your own food as much as possible serves two primary purposes in effective diet and exercise plans. First, by understanding what food you are preparing to eat you will automatically spend time looking at more natural ingredients that are unprocessed. That pays important health dividends. Second, when you prepare you own food you learn about the number of calories in what you are eating, what a proper portion should be, as well as the fat, sugar and sodium content in the food. Understanding what you are preparing focuses you on proper nutrition.
4. Lifestyle Change - I have found this to be a critical component of effective diet and exercise plans, simply because if you can't make a lifestyle change through better eating and exercising your results won't be maintained. Finding a program that promotes these areas lets you see the effects of dropping pounds which builds excitement and momentum makes the lifestyle change more permanent.
5. Program Support - Not a lot of attention is paid to this, but it is important. Some type of support, through forums, local meetings or subscribing to an online diet program that provides email communications is very helpful. Look for this type of support as you assess a particular program.

The most effective diet and exercise plans I have reviewed contain several or all of the elements described here, so make sure to validate that whatever plan you are considering contains them.
