Same goes for EXERCISE behaviours...lifestyle change vs. fad diets and exercises?
Fad diets/exercises are often seen as a “magic bullet” to losing weight & improving health.
Alternatively, long-term lifestyle change is proven to help achieve wellness goals & improve day-to-day well-being.
Like fad diets, fad exercise routines can be difficult to sustain & In many cases, fitness fads rapidly gain popularity through marketing rather than sound evidence.
There's a difference between an exercise trend and an exercise fad. While a fad is usually “gimmicky” and lacks evidence, exercise trends are popular because the research shows that they are effective.
Why don’t fad diets and exercises work?
One key feature all these fads share that makes them unsuccessful is that they are too short-sighted. These methods prioritize achieving weight loss as fast as possible. They often give little concern to your health and well-being in the long term.
This all-or-nothing mindset can also be harmful to both your physical and mental health.
It takes time to cultivate safe, sustainable habits that help achieve healthy sustainable outcomes for life long-term. NO “magic bullets”.
