How to boost your metabolism with exercise

Years of research indicate you can shed off and maintain your body weight much easily through maintaining healthy metabolism standards

Metabolism refers to the process through which the body converts food in –take to energy required by the body (involves burning of calories). By boosting your metabolism, you increase the rate at which the body burns calories. As a result you end up shedding some weight in the process.

Understanding How to boost your metabolism in therefore critical not only in maintaining weight but also in ensuring your body is producing enough energy required in running daily activities.

To understand metabolism in depth, you have to understand these two terms:

Metabolism rate; refers to the energy conversion rate in the body (rate at which the body burns calories)

Basal metabolism rate; basically, refers to the amount of energy required for performance of basic body functions such as breathing (number of calories required for basic body operations)

Factors affecting to improve metabolism

  • The body metabolism or metabolic rates is subject to influence by various factors;
  • Daily activities levels
  • Gender
  • Body structure and composition
  • Age
  • Body size
  • Food consumed

There are various ways of improving your body’s metabolism. They include

  • Exercising
  • Improving your daily activity levels
  • Drinking more water
  • Taking more stimulants
  • Getting enough sleep

There are more methods are habits that could fill this list.

However I want us to focus on exercising as a method of improving metabolism

How to boost your metabolism with exercise

Give the numerous merits associated with exercising ranging from confidence boost, feel-good feelings, metal and body developments to numerous health benefits, exercise is arguably the most efficient and best method of improving your metabolism.

Let’s us dig deeper into learning how to achieve via exercising. At the end of the day if you got to do it, why not do it like a pro?

To achieve healthy metabolism through exercise, we build on two core factors that affect the body’s metabolism rate that is,

Body structure and composition

How does body structure and composition affect the metabolism rate?

In this context we are referring to a lean muscle body structure and fat mass structure.

Lean muscle structured bodies are characterized by a large number of muscle cells. Muscle cells are in some cases referred to as metabolically active tissue. This is owed to the fact that they require massive energy in –takes.

Consequently, the muscle cells burn more calories even in their resting state. Therefore muscle structured bodies tend have a higher metabolism rate naturally.

Fat mass structured bodies containing mostly fat cells on the other hand, require relatively lower energy levels. Number of calories required to provide the required energy is significantly lower hence the low metabolism rate.

Exerciser helps develop a muscle structured body

From the foregoing it is therefore important to ensure that maintain a mostly muscle structured body to boost your metabolism.

You should therefore concentrated on strength and weight training that improve your body structure by developing you muscle cells.

Experts say that to the desirable levels of metabolism through exercise, you should mostly focus on heavy workout programs aimed at developing the muscle cells in abs, biceps and quads among others. You should integrate the workout program in your schedule to ensure that you exercise at least tow times a week. Heavy lifting is mostly preferable.

Activity levels (high intensity body workouts)

High levels of body activities require more energy. The body therefore burns more calories in order to meet these energy requirements.

Indulging in high intensity workout programs is by far the best way of improving your metabolism.  Experts argue that the up side of high intensity programs in that their effect in terms in terms of burning calories extends for up to and over 30 hours after the program.

What is high intensity workout program?

High intensity programs involve a combination of effort intensive exercises followed by recovery exercises repeated all in a relatively short span of time repeated again over and over.

The Agility Fitness exercises may fall within aerobics or even cardio provided they involve a series if changing pace, changing intensity and repetition. This involvement of the body in vigorous activity keeps the body bring more calories even long after your workout time.

Some professionals recommend integrating strength training and combining with high intensity programs to achieve maximum results.

On that note

Your sole purpose is probably to solely boost your metabolism. As mentioned there are many other alternatives of achieving that goal. However, exercising as a means to achieve this objective comes with a lot more and extra benefits. In that case is objective a more suitable option.
