Many exercise professionals talk about doing one kind of exercise (like high intensity or low intensity) in order to lose the most weight or get the best body. Most of the time what they are claiming is true (although I’d have to check the sources!), because ALL kinds of exercise programs produce results…the results just differ.
High intensity exercise produces quick results and a lot of other benefits, but you run the risk of burning yourself out. And moderate-to-low intensity exercise produces relatively slower results and is able to be incorporated into daily activities which tend to help build a lasting program. In addition to that, walking is different than running, Yoga is different than Pilates, elliptical is different than StairMaster, etc.
It is really up to you to choose what kind of exercise programs you enjoy and produce the results that YOU are looking for.
