Short YouTube-commentary by Jim Katsoulis arguing that consistency matters more than intensity for dieting: intense, short-term efforts are harder to sustain, so steady, repeatable actions lead to better long-term results. He acknowledges intensity has a role but prioritizes consistency.

Consistency is more important than intensity, and most dieters are valuing intensity over consistency because you just want to be intense and lose the weight quickly. But what ends up happening is you do intense things that you can only do for a little while. The more intense you are, the harder is to be consistent. I'll take consistency every day of the week. Don't get me wrong, there is time and a place for intensity, too. But I will value, and I do value consistency way more.
