Love the website and all the information on it. Very inspiring and great information here.

One question I had was whether there is a Royal Marines style of workout/exercise.

And what I mean is do they see exercise as lots of running/plyometrics/weight-lifting or bodyweight exercises outdoors. Or is it a combination?

Any thoughts would be great. Thanks!!

First let me say that when losing weight, slower is actually better: it is more likely to stay off that way and is more healthy for the body. So don’t rush things…!
Losing weight is all to do with calories in vs calories out. These can both be controlled by the amount eaten and the amount of activity (exercise) done.

So, if calories in is less than calories out then weight will be lost…the bigger the deficit between the two, the quicker the weightloss. In flippant terms, lets consider someone at a labour camp and is fed nothing/very little but made to work hard labour 12hrs a day: they will lose weight VERY quickly.

Conversely if we consider someone who works in an office, who is very sedentary (does no exercise at all/drives to work/sits at a desk etc) and decides to lose weight by cutting out sugar in tea and desserts after meals, they will lose weight very slowly – if at all.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,
