My Hypothesis:
1.Excercising
2.Excercising is good for you and your health
3.Excercising can help with lowering cholesterol.
4.Working out for 1 to 2 hours cab be beneficial to burn fat.
5.While being active for either health reasons or to get the physic you desire, there would be challenges.
6.Exercising to better your health, to be more confident in yourself, or to get the physique you desire, could come with challenges as in pain in lifting and staying committed. Once you accomplish your goal, you’ll be in a better position than you were before.

Counterintuitive Fall 2024 
Let’s do some feedback here, JReggie, since we haven’t conferenced yet.
This post follows the pattern of Hypothesis development nicely, beginning with a VERY broad topic and gradually narrowing it until it results in a claim that can be demonstrated, if not eternally proven.
To be Counterintuitive, though, it would have to make a claim most people would find puzzling at the very least, not a claim everybody would automatically agree with.
Let’s just start at 6 and see what we can do.
First, it has to be clear in itself. “lose unwanted fat and calories” doesn’t really make sense. I guess it means that exercising burns calories that would otherwise be converted to fat OR that exercising actually burns through body fat to provide the calories needed to lift the weight or propel the running or jumping body. Do you want to concentrate on burning calories BEFORE they’re converted to fat or AFTER?
“makes you feel better in everyday activities” is vague, too, and very subjective. There may be joy in pushing the body to its limits, but there is certainly pain as well. Do exercises WELCOME the pain as evidence that they’re exerting themselves for a PURPOSE, to strengthen their muscles, to prolong their heart health, etc.? And afterwards, during “everyday activities,” do they “feel better” because they’ve exercised and bask in the afterglow of feeling healthier? Or do they actually move more confidently, accomplish simple lifts without strain, walk for miles without fatigue, and so on? I can’t tell from your #6 what that “feeling” amounts to.
Until we have a conference, you’re on notice that our conversation will occur here. Start immediately. Explain a bit of what you mean AND provide me some links to the sources you’re consulting so far.
Professor, I took your advice and this is my new Hypo about Zucker rats. It turns out they DO lie.
