There are a lot of people who would give a lot to increase their metabolism. Having a high level of metabolism enables one to maintain,burn fat and lose weight fast with the least amount of activity. Metabolism is the rate by which the body produces and consumes energy and calories to support life.
There are several factors that affect the metabolism of a person, such as
the amount of muscle tissue, the frequency of the meals one consumes,genetics,
stress levels, personal diet and activity levels. Metabolism slows down due to the following: Loss of muscle because of not enough physical activity,
the tendency of the body to cannibalize its own tissue because there is not enough food energy to sustain it, and the decrease of physical activity that comes naturally with ageing.
Here are several ways to fire up one's metabolism:
1. Build up on lean, mean body mass. It is only natural that metabolism
decreases along with age, but it is possible to counter the effects. The ammount of muscle a person has is a very strong determinant in the ability
to burn calories and shed fat.Click Here!
So it goes without saying that exercise is
essential. Build strength and resistence by working out at least twice a
week, preferably with weights. Do easy exercises in between workouts.
Simple tasks such as walking the dog and using the stairs in place of the
elevator can already take off calories. The key is to MATCH THE AMMOUNT OF EATING to the amount of activity one has. Here are some guidelines in
getting the right exercise:
For Strenth Training
*Increase the amount of repetitions of a particular exercise.Click & SEE!
*Add the level of resistance.
*Utilize advance exercise techniques if possible.
For Cardiovascular Training
*Insert intervals between exercises.
*Perform cross-training and combine the exercises.
*Add up on resistance and speed.
2. Eat Breakfast! A lot of people are ignoring the fact that breakfast is
the most important meal of the day. Surprisingly, the ones who eat breakfast
are thinner than the ones who do not. Metabolism can slow down considerably
if breakfast is taken during mid-morning or if one waits until the afternoon to eat. Click Here!
