false 🤓☝️. most of your energy is actually transferred into your environment through force and heat. it takes energy to lift a weight. when you lift the weight, the energy from your body gets transferred into the weight, thus it rises against the force of gravity. when you sweat, you release body heat (energy) into your environment through evaporative cooling. if all our energy was expelled through waste processes then we would never be able to move anything. it takes energy to do that stuff.
