You have ZERO credentials "PowerManDL". The facts are gentle movements burn fat. Fast movements burn sugar. These two types of calories are NOT interchangeable.

Google doesn't turn up any references to Susan Harmony, with or without a PhD.

Troll.

I will find the references to my EPOC claims and show them. EPOC is basically and excuse for fatties to do less work.

Also those heavy squats you do will have you feeling it by 50. can you say knee replacement surgery?
I am neither fat, nor a powerlifter, but do some pretty heavy work in the gym. I suppose, since I am pushing 60 that I am about 10 years overdue for knee replacement.

I have no credentials. I have no letters after my name. I have my body and my experience and your argument for "gentle" exercise is the smoke and mirrors that has contributed to making this country soft and out of shape and put it on the brink of, if not already in the throes of, an obesity epidemic.

Susan -- So far you've done everything EXCEPT back up your claims with medline-indexed research. That's what you should be providing at the bare minimum, not Youtube clips. All you've done is repeat yourself & issue personal attacks while attempting to deflect the argument.

This "Susan" has to be a joke, right? No way is this the real "Susan".

PubMed is full of studies supporting my claims. Do a search.

Also there is no obesity epidemic. If you actually looked at the data from the Center For Disease Control they admit this.

Thridly, gentle excercise does NOT contribute to obsity. Walk for 3 hours , see how obese you are. Or do "'HIIT". We'll see who loses more weight (fat).

An hour-2 hours of walking almost everyday melts fat right off of you far better than 15 minutes of HIIT dreamed of.

Not my problem.

You made the claims, you back them up.

If you want to be taken seriously, that is. I'm having much more fun with you as a bullshitter.

Susan, assuming you're real (and I have no reason to doubt that you aren't), I will say that you have cajones for coming into an obvious hostile environment to debate your case. So props to you on that.

Regarding your subject matter, I know that P-man has no "credentials" but so far he has made a much better argument for his position (once I eliminate both of your back and forth insults, which I request to stop on all sides!). If you are relying simply on the fact that you have a PhD, that in and of itself is a fallacious appeal to authority.

The PhD isn't supposed to grant you final authority... It's supposed to mean that you have completed course-work and mastered the language of your chosen craft, which also means that you should be able to easily support your own claims as you should have all sorts of supporting research. It's not a religion, so your world view should not be threatened if presented with better or more up to date research. If anything, your background should make you dispassionate about any data presented.

I am not attacking you here. On the contrary, I am stepping in as the forum's host to welcome you and to request that EVERYONE reading this thread (including you) take a more civil tone. Thanks for joining us and I look forward to this continued debate.

That's what I'm thinking.

Susan, just so we know whether or not to take you seriously, can you post a link indicating that you're real? Is that too much to ask?

Dr. Harmony - since you appear to be attempting to argue from authority, I'd appreciate it if you would tell us area of your doctorate and the institution that granted your Ph.D.

I just did a Yahoo search for "Dr. Wot" and it returned no results.

Can you please tell us a little more about yourself, Dr. Harmony? I cannot locate any publications by you after some pretty extensive searching.

You made the claims. You do the posting to back them up.

I believe I used the words "on the brink of, if not already in the throes of." That, I will stand by, the CDC notwithstanding.

Read my lips. Nobobdy looking to lose significant fat is going to walk for three hours. Most won't do it for 30 minutes. Hell, they won't even walk from their cars to the store until they have burned a half tank of gas looking for the closest parking space. You have forgotten the key ingredient, your target audience. Your ivory tower has given you tunnel vision.

And 15 minutes of HIIT 3 times a week will give them time for things like, a life, family, obligations, work, hobbies AND an occasional walk.

It doesn't say anything about her alleged credentials.
