The Power of Fidgeting. Losing Weight by Increasing Non Exercise Activity Thermogenesis.
Summary
In this episode of the Earn Your Title Podcast, Danny Dumas discusses the concept of NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis) and its role in weight loss. He explains that weight loss is a simple mathematical formula of calories in versus calories out, but the complexity lies in the fact that every individual loses weight at a different rate for different reasons. NEAT is the energy expended through non-exercise activities like fidgeting and moving around, and it can contribute to weight loss without the need for intense exercise. Danny emphasizes the importance of increasing NEAT through small lifestyle changes and being inefficient in daily activities.
