Award-winning epidemiologist Tim Spector has stirred controversy by claiming that exercise does not play a significant role in weight loss. Contrary to popular belief, Spector argues that focusing on diet is key for effective weight management. He challenges the common notion that rigorous exercise alone can lead to weight loss, stating that it can only prevent weight gain. Spector’s findings suggest that the impact of exercise on weight loss may be overestimated and that dietary habits should be the main focus when aiming to shed pounds.
