Maximize Your Metabolism With Body Envy Boot Camps…


Guest Post

Do you have a slow metabolic rate? Having a slow metabolism is like having a roadblock on fat loss. Your body needs you to do something! There are a few ways you can boost your metabolism, including attending our Chandler boot camp program and we will cover a few of the most important ones.

First off, you have to realize you have the power to get that slow metabolism kicked up a few notches.

Getting into prime shape demands that your metabolism is working on all cylinders. There are two main things you can do to put some fire underneath that metabolism of yours.

1) Eat

You read it right…Eat! A slow metabolism can and will increase the more you eat and the more frequently you eat.

Now you can not sit down to a meal of french fries and hot dogs all day and expect to lose weight. But, with a healthy diet in place with moderate amounts of protein, you are on your way to a livelier metabolism.

Spread those meals out over 5-7 smaller feedings throughout the day and you will feel your body firing up that internal furnace called your metabolism.

You see…your body will burn smaller meals similar to how a fire burns wood. Throwing a high calorie meal in your body is like throwing a big oak log on a small fire. It will simply smother the fire out.

On the other hand, if you put several smaller meals in your body throughout the day, it is like putting kindling on a fire….you are providing a quick burning fuel for immediate heat!

Small frequent meals keep your fire (metabolism) burning, whereas big logs (meals) smother out the fire and initiate little heat production. We are looking for maximum heat. Having “mini” meals frequently throughout the day is a great way to keep your metabolic rate turned up.

2) Exercise.

Exercise blasts away calories. No revelation there, but that is the name of the game.  Participating in a Chandler Arizona boot camp like Body Envy Boot Camp, is a great way to burn calories.

“More calories out vs. calories in.” That is the basic underlying principle, but there are many other factors that come into play. We’ll keep this really simple.

Exercise, especially challenging interval type exercise, can help keep you burning calories all day long.

You see, muscle is an active tissue. What this menas is that you need to eat to keep it functioning efficiently. Roughly 40-50 calories per pound of muscle is an estimate on how many calories your body requires per day to sustain it. That might not sound like much, but what if you added 5-10 lbs of lean muscle to your body? Jupming your body’s ability to burn an additional 200 to 500 extra calories each and every day. That is a lot of extra calories! Especially when that happens naturally from having higher muscle mass levels and no additional activity is required….bonus!

The best way to build calorie burning muscle is with resistance exercise…a.k.a. weight training. You should make it a point to add resistance training to your overall exercise program. Lifting weights is a far superior form of exericse to support your metabolism compared to other exercises.

By using moderate to heavy weights, you will have elevated your resting metabolic rate. It is estimated that your resting metabolic rate (RMR) is responsible for roughly 60-70% of your daily energy expenditure. Anything you can do to elevate your RMR will have the greatest net effect on your fat loss efforts. From an exercise standpoint, resistance training has the greatest impact.

Cardiovascular exercise will also help elevate a slow metabolism. Your body will continue to burn additional calories, sometimes hours after you have finished your workout. The more intense (effort) your workout is, the longer your metabolism will continue burning calories at an accelerated rate.

So hit your resistance training and cardio program with the right intensity and see what happens to your “turtle” like metabolic rate. Expect to see and feel noticeable changes to your metabolic rate after a few weeks. Incorporate some cardiovascular intervals, like fitness boot camp training, to the mix when you are ready and the skies the limit.

Make sure to eat a basic nutrient dense diet with sufficient amounts of protein through out the day. Increasing meal frequency will ignite a slow metabolism.
