1. Slight improvements in the musculoskeletal system will result in significant weight loss.

2. Regaining the natural form of the musculoskeletal system will result in the gain of natural - normal body weight.


a) Healthy loss of excess body weight is only possible by reversing unnatural musculoskeletal changes.

b) Weight loss caused by medical conditions like starvation, cancer, AIDS, etc., doesn't cause improvement in the musculoskeletal system.


The physiological process (productive physiological process) of weight loss caused by improved postural control and locomotor skills is hugely different from the physiological process (destructive physiological process) of weight loss caused by a medical condition like starvation, cancer, AIDS, etc.,

Positive Musculoskeletal Changes and Weight Loss

The only weight loss that can be called "healthy weight loss" is the loss of excessive body weight induced by positive musculoskeletal changes.


Improvement in walking and running gait and sitting and standing posture cause positive musculoskeletal changes.

The only way to reverse obesity is to reverse the adverse musculoskeletal changes.


Positive musculoskeletal changes are induced only by improvement in walking and running gait and sitting and standing posture.


Appropriate physical activities cause improvement in walking and running gait and sitting and standing posture.

Inappropriate physical activities don't cause improvement in walking and running gait or standing and sitting posture. Most of them cause further deterioration of gait and posture, thus causing additional weight gain.
