You can't 'outrun' obesity: Study says exercise doesn't help weight loss

Mashable reports:

A team of British cardiologists have said it's time to "bust the myth" that regular exercise tackles obesity.

The strongly-worded editorial in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, published in the May edition of the journal, says you can't outrun a bad diet and that although regular exercise reduces the risk of developing a number of health issues such as heart disease, dementia, some cancers and type 2 diabetes, it doesn't promote weight loss.

Put down that fork.
