Scientists Are Now Claiming That Taking A Hot Bath Is More Beneficial Than Exercise

Dieting can be hard. We strive to avoid the yo-yo weight while retaining our muscle mass after a calorie deficit, especially after a long term period of starvation. Then there is exercise, which often causes us to be hungrier than we were and also tires us out in the process.

But now, scientists are stepping forward to say that taking a hot bath is much more beneficial compared to low-activity exercises like yoga. Yes – you heard me!

People thought that losing weight only involved dieting and exercise – but not anymore.

A hot bath will not burn as many calories as an intense exercise routine, however – biking was unsurprisingly much more effective at burning fat compared to just soaking in the tub. But when carried out on the same day, you can now burn more calories without tiring yourself out!
