LBs: Lean Body Solutions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781495456473)

Does metabolism change with age?Why has my metabolism slowed down?At what age does your metabolism start to slow down?Can you change the speed of your metabolism?"With each passing year it keeps getting harder and harder to lose the weight. My metabolism must be slowing down."Chances are, you have heard this before.Is this true? Does our metabolism automatically have to slow down with age? Or....can we do something to prevent it?As we age, we begin to notice that it becomes increasingly more difficult to shed excess pounds. It seems as if the extra cookies at Christmas go right to our sides. The dessert scoop of ice cream begins to show up on the hips. While the nightly "beverage" goes straight to the belly. These, combined with our failure to follow through on our New Year's weight loss resolution, can lead to weight gain.What about your workouts? Are they lacking? Do you find you just don't have the time or energy to workout the way you used to? Are you stressed? Lacking sleep? The list can go on and on, but the result is the same: a slowed metabolism and associated weight gain. Is there anything we can do to minimize this age related metabolic slowdown? The answer is yes.For example, did you know that a study conducted out of the University of Glasgow looked at the basal metabolic rate and fat free mass of 22 physically active older men (roughly 62 yrs old). The researchers then measured those same biomarkers six years later. They found minimal to no change in metabolic rate and fat free mass. Why?Because, they remained physically active.While it well-known diet and exercise help us to maintain our weight, there are also many other lesser known factors that play a role.
