How Men Lose Weight

By Sammy Ason


Why is weight loss in males different from that in females? Simply put, females have a harder time losing fat than men do. It's important to note that regardless of genetics or choice of fat loss approach, women can still lose weight. Apart from genetics playing a role, men are more likely to lose weight because working out gives them the upper hand.

What sets the male body apart from the female body in the weight loss arena is muscle. Males tend to be naturally leaner than women in that their bodies are prone to develop muscle during the development stages. Again, women also have muscle on their bodies, but males are more likely to develop it and have an increase in muscle mass.

The male body is able to build muscle as a result of the high presence of the hormone known as testosterone. Although present in females as well, it is found in very low levels. Testosterone allows the body to create muscle tissue. When it comes to fat loss, men can take comfort in knowing that they are built to burn it off, if they develop their muscles.

For the best possible outcomes, men should consume foods such as beef, chicken and fish, as these are high in protein. Other food choices that contain protein are legumes and nuts. The presence of protein in the body enables muscle production to occur. Without protein, muscle mass in a male is at its lowest. In addition to developing a protein-rich diet, exercise should be the next priority for those seeking to burn off fat.

Keeping active to burn fat is a very effective solution. One should participate in sports to work out their body. Such actions are beneficial in keeping your body in top shape, while at the same time, allowing you to have fun. People can also go jogging or roller blading to build their strength. In all, it isn't difficult to find an activity that suits your taste, as well as, allows you to lose weight.

While sports are a popular form of exercise, working out is the clear choice when it comes to burning off fat. This doesn't imply that you can't do both at the same time. But working out is better at targeting your muscles and allows you to tone your body. Before long, you too, will be able to see the definition in your body, if you choose to exercise. All in all, anybody is capable of getting results if they try their hardest to do so.
