Thought i'd make a new thread, i posted this in tyler's journal, basically a theory on why raw paleoists dont exercise, dont take it as fact lol
When i exercise, i never get cravings for carbs for the rest of the day, it's only when i dont i find myself thinking of eating crap lol
Mainly because you're using your fat reserves, far more efficiently for energy, then if you sit around
In order to use fat for energy efficiently you need to expend alot more energy, exercise is a part of that expenditure
Sedentary & endemic carb in tissue, brings on cravings for carbs, as a low exercise body burns fat far less efficiently, cravings for carbs, ie energy which uses less effort to use, occur
Fat is also far efficient then carbs in terms of density
Carbs have 4 calories per gram, while fat has 9 calories per gram
On a ketogenic diet, ie zero or low carb, diet, with exercise you're getting double the amount of calories by burning 1 gram of fat, then you would by burning 1 gram of carb's or sugar
Sedentary lifestyles crave carbs & sugar, because of their inability to use fat efficiently, even with ketogenesis, or on a low carb diet
Why people like aajonus or people who find exercise unhealthy, is because of the periodicity of sedentaryism, or their biological clock, after a term of ketogenesis, ie eating fat as a fuel, being stationary or sedentary forces them to use alternative forms of energy from their liver & muscle, which are different types of sugars from regular carbs, but still burn alot faster then fat
They would need prolonged exposure to exercise to allow their bodies to use energy from fat, when stationary or sedentary, as theyre bodies have adapted to processing sugars stored in their muscle liver etc., when sedentary or stationary
When exercising the adaptation from sugars in muscle & organs, makes it difficult for them to adapt to an efficient fat burning process
Their existing fat & raw food reserves, allows them extended stamina & health, but forced exercise or physical stress forces them to use fat reserves inefficiently, because of their prolonged sedentary, resulting in maladjustment
Why Not Exercising May Be Good For You
You could also argue, because the sugars stored in your body, are also released automatically, if not used, 12 hours for your liver, about 8 hours for muscle
Which is the main reason high carbers, wake up with sugar induced coma's & crystals in their eyes, their bodies dump the carbs stored in their muscle & liver into their bloodstream, every 8 & 12 hours, before it gets stored as fat & back into liver & muscle
The efficient periodicity of the release of sugars, could actually be beneficial over those who exercise & train their bodies to use fat efficiently when sedentary
As you're getting a double release of calories every 8 or 12 hours, & the low amount of energy required to use them, leading to less overall stress on the body as a whole
