The basal metabolic rate has a lot to do with weight loss, because 50%-70% of the daily calorie intake of ordinary people comes from basal metabolism. The basal metabolic rate is like a coal-burning boiler. If this boiler is very powerful, it can burn more coal (heat).
Many girls, using hunger therapy to lose weight, often let the body reduce the basal metabolic rate to a very low level, because our body has learned the mechanism of saving energy to sustain life in millions of years of evolution. When the daily calorie intake is too low, the body will think that famine is coming (consciousness can't control it), and will try to reduce the activity of internal organs and try to conserve energy, just like a boiler. If there is less coal, people who burn boilers will naturally burn less. However, this method of losing weight often cannot be sustained for a long time. Once a normal diet is restored, it will aggravate the accumulation of fat, because the power of burning calories in the body, that is, the basal metabolic rate, has been reduced a lot. This is why many women are getting fatter and fatter.
Doing exercise, especially strength training, can effectively improve the basal metabolic rate, and there is no need to worry about muscle overgrowth, because the hormone level of women is only 10-30 times that of men. Strength training combined with aerobic training can make you have a healthy and symmetrical figure with beautiful lines and not easy to rebound. And energetic temperament.
