Staying healthy and balancing a heavy load is not easy to do. Between work, commuting, family commitments and trying to have a social life, we are often hard-pressed for time. When life gets chaotic, the last thing you want to do is spend hours working out, so that’s why we are fans of making it a priority to maximize every minute during exercise. Transforming your body from head to toe doesn’t just lie in the kitchen, but also in your exercise plan and more specifically, the ability to incorporate strength training and cardio into your routine. So, if you want to torch calories, lower your body fat, and stay trim for life, you need more muscle. That’s because toning up and building muscle is the fastest way to build metabolism-revving muscle. After age 30, everyone starts to lose 3 to 8 percent of their muscle mass every 10 years. And a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that for every pound of muscle a person loses, they will typically gain a pound of fat. In a study from the University of Minnesota, women who did twice weekly strength training routines gained 67 percent less abdominal fat of a period of two years that another group of sedentary women who did not strength train. Simply put, the more muscle you have on your body, the more calories you’ll burn all day long—even when you’re sitting around.
