Michael explores the truth about a controversial new idea in fitness, called the "Constrained Energy Hypothesis." It states that we don't actually burn more calories a day when we exercise. But it has some pushback.

• This episode will help clear some recent confusion over whether exercise helps us burn more calories across a day.
• More research shows that exercise does indeed help you burn more calories, but you won't burn as many as you think.
• And if you want to lose weight through exercise, you'll have to do a lot of it.
• You'll learn just how many calories exercise really burns and how much you'll have to exercise to find an effect.
