[QUOTE="zand, post: 1834312, member: 85197"] re the brisk walking element of the plan. Some years back I read a study where a doctor had set out to prove that brisk walking was better than slower walking for weight loss. He studied walking uphill briskly and walking down hill more slowly and was surprised to find his theory had been wrong. The slow/moderate exercise of the walk down hill was more effective for weight loss. Now when someone has a theory and sets out to prove it but ends up disproving it then that study means something to me. It's more likely to have valid results. I can't remember if the guy said why the slower walking was better but I guess it could be because the body produces less adrenalin with moderate exercise, so less cortisol? Sorry no link, this was a while back before I was diabetic. Brisk exercise is good for the heart of course, but if the main problem is obesity it may be better to take things more slowly. [/QUOTE]
