They’ve done studies on the hadza tribe in Africa. They’re the closest examples to how our ancestors lived: they hunt and gather their food. Very active people and they found that the percentage of calories their lifestyle burned is identical to modern sedentary lifestyles in the west.

Why do you think it’s always fat asses in Zumba class? 😂
