Why diet is critical for fat loss

To make this a Foodie Friday, an article about the fat-burning zone included this statement about burning fat through exercise:

[A] point to consider is how much fat we actually burn during exercise (if we express it in grams per minute). The answer is: surprisingly little. Even in studies with athletes, at FATmax, participants only burned on average a mere 0.5 grams of fat per minute. This would equate to around 30 grams of fat per hour.

In the average person, this appears to be even lower, ranging between 0.1 and 0.4 grams of fat per minute. To put it in perspective, one pound of fat weighs around 454 grams. So, though training in this fat burning zone will help with fat loss, this might also help explain why it takes some people longer to lose fat through exercise.

So to lose 1 pound of fat through exercise, we would have work out approximately 15 hours. I think managing diet would be easier.
