Lose Weight, Caveman Style
source: Health Scout News
According to researchers at Colorado State University, the caveman expended about 3,000 calories of energy a day. This was burned off by the hearty exercise involved in hunting and the gathering of food.
Today, the average person burns off about 1,700 calories of energy, but most people eat much higher amounts.
So what’s the answer? Rather than drastically cutting your calorie intake, up your exercise to burn off more.
