Simplest way to Boost your metabolism

A very known word to all of us whether you are a fitness freak or not, Metabolism!
You are not losing fat faster because of low metabolism. You are not gaining weight easily because of very high metabolism. These are the lines you people heard many times.
So let's talk about what metabolism is all about?


How much energy you burn in a day or how much energy or calories your body uses is metabolism.
So metabolism plays an important role to see results. The faster your metabolic rate, the more calories you burn.

How to check Metabolism

You need to calculate BMR(Basal Metabolic Rate), BMR calculates the calories you burn while resting whole day.
Actually, our body burns calories even though we are not doing any physical workout.
Our body needs energy or calories to do all natural processes like the heartbeat, breathing, maintaining muscles, other functions.

Beware of Myth

With the name of Metabolism, you encounter a lot of myths. 
Very first is by weight loss industry that promotes their product boost your metabolism without change your diet. That's the wrong promotion.
Second is thin people have the high metabolism and they are lucky. That's not true.
Thin people could have slow metabolism than overweight people.

Boosting Metabolism

There are some ways by which you can boost your metabolism and reach the maximum potential of your metabolism.

HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) with Weight Lifting

While you do regular cardio like jogging, you get the boosting of metabolic rate at the time of the exercise only, but when do HIIT(High-Intensity Interval Training) you get the boosting for around some hours.

HIIT can be anything, can be sprints on the treadmill or flipping a heavy tire. Make sure your training session no more than 20 to 40 mins and rest between the exercise no more than 30 secs.

Lift weight and build muscle mass because muscle mass can increase a sufficient metabolism. Don't afraid to push your limit because it gives you strength and make workout challenging. 


Build Muscle

You have to put on some muscles to reach your metabolism to a high count.
It's estimated that pound of muscle burns 6 calories while fat burns only 2 calories.
A very funny thing that we heard that "Fat will convert into muscles."  Actually, they are totally different tissues and not interchangeable.

Increase Protein Intake

Thermodynamic Effect of Food (TEF). Energy count that your body needs to digest food. 
So the TEF of protein is much higher as compared to carbs and fat.
Simply means protein is harder to digest and your body needs more energy to digest it.

Integillency is to add a lean source of protein in every large meal.

Plenty of H2O

As we know that drinking plenty of water has a lot of benefits. From a vehicle to flush out fat to make you feel full.
If you are dehydrated, its very high change to feel craving and then you feel hungry instead of thirsty.
And drinking a lot of water burns more calories. So it's very healthy approach to drink plenty of water to boost your metabolism.


Stay away with Stress and Sleep Well

Stress because of work lot, family issues, relationship, etc. Life has a lot of things to make you stressed. But Be positive in every situation and beat the stress.
Because Stress creates a lot of problems. Here I am talking about metabolism only.
So when we stressed, our cortisol hormones releases.
Then because of it, your blood sugar rises, so pancreas releases extra insulin to lowering blood sugar so the result would be the craving for food, especially a craving for carbs.

And Sleep releases your stress, helps in digestion, recover muscle breakdown and much more.
So take care of yourself. Sleep Well. Do Meditation or Yoga and give some to yourself. Enjoy the life.


So at the end, You don't have to feel that You are a victim of slow metabolism and You don't have those genes. You can change your metabolism. You can burn fat easily, build muscle or You can do whatever you want to do.

Stay Happy, Stay Blessed.
