We all know this one: try to get in at least 10,000 steps per day.
However, such black-or-white, one-size-fits-all solutions are sometimes outdated or unfounded or lack the necessary nuance to be correct or helpful, which is why I’m not usually a fan of them. But is this one bad? Or is there something to it?

Image credit: Total Shape And what, Socrates, is the food of the soul? Surely, I said, knowledge is the food of the soul. A lot of us pursue fat loss at some point in our fitness journey.
But what is body fat and what is it for? Where does it come from? And how do we lose it? This article is all about understanding the answers to these questions. Doctors won’t make you healthy. Nutritionists won’t make you slim. Teachers won’t make you smart. Gurus won’t make you calm. Mentors won’t make you rich. Trainers won’t make you fit. Ultimately, you have to take responsibility. The end of January marked my fifth month working at a commercial gym. Having had the opportunity to talk to a variety of people, I have also had the chance to discover what confuses them about exercise and nutrition.
The problem is the amount of conflicting information in the media, on social media platforms, or packaged as books and newspaper articles by so-called “experts” who have some sort of self-interested agenda. Bombarded with contrasting messages like “Sugar addiction will kill you”, “Fat is bad”, and “Carbs are the devil”, how are you supposed to know what to do? This article is a small collection of honest messages about training and nutrition designed to help you make sense of the madness. Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, ‘I will try again tomorrow.’ Useful Links: Part 1
