Is there anything we can do to increase our metabolic rate?

"Metabolism refers to all the chemical processes that take place in the body in order to sustain life - processes that allow you to breathe,pump blood, keep your brain functioning and extract energy from your food," says Susan Bowerman, M.S., R.D., C.S.S.D. and a consultant to Herbalife. "Your basal metabolic rate refers to the number of calories your body uses each day, at rest, just to keep all your vital organs functioning."

The metabolic rate is directly related to your body composition. Every pound of body fat you have burns only about 2 calories a day. But the rest of you - your lean body mass - burns about 14 calories per pound each day. A big portion of your lean body mass is made up of muscle, so one of the best things you can do to increase your metabolic rate is to build up muscle through strength training. And, make sure to take in adequate protein from the diet, which helps to build and maintain lean muscle, too.

At your local Community Wellness Club your body compostion analysis will include a calculation of your basal metabolic age and metabolic age. 


Here are the facts surround five myths about metabolism:


Myth: Aging slows your metabolism.


Truth: People do tend to put on weight as they get older - but it's typically because they tend to exercise less, or less vigorously,than they used to - and that means fewer calories burned per day. As a result, loss of muscle mass can occur which reduces the body's lean body mass - which results in a slower metabolic rate. Cardiovascular exercise to burn calories and strength training to preserve or build up muscle are great defenses against age-related weight gain.


Myth: You're stuck with the metabolism you have and you can't change it.


Truth: While it may appear that there are people who eat all the time and never seem to gain, chances are they make healthy, relatively low calorie selections naturally. Many of these "lucky" people also burn more calories simply because they move more - they might fidget more, or get up from their desks frequently during the day to stretch, or walk down the hall to talk to a colleague instead of e-mailing. So, once you've made the commitment to boost your metabolism by building more muscle, use those muscles more by moving around frequently throughout the day.


Myth: You burn more calories digesting ice-cold foods and beverages than foods that are room temperature or warmer.


Truth: In a laboratory, very slight increases in calorie burn have been measured in people who drink very cold beverages. But the change is too small (amounting to about 10 more calories burned per day) to have any meaningful impact on weight loss.


Myth: If you cut calories, your metabolic rate will slow down, so what's the point?


Truth: It is true that your metabolic rate can slow a bit when you cut calories - your body's natural inclination is to try to conserve calories as best it can. But, these decreases are relatively small, and if you become more active as you lose weight, you can offset these small changes. With a combination of diet AND exercise, you can help to preserve the rate at which your body burns calories.


Myth: If you stop eating at night, when your metabolism is slower, you'll lose more weight.


Truth: When people lose weight because they stop eating after a certain time of day, it's only because they've cut their overall calorie consumption - not because they are eating their calories earlier in the day. Consuming all your calories before the sun goes down won't speed up your weight loss unless you also eat fewer calories than you need.

Each week under the guidance of a Personal Wellness Coach a group of like minded people meet to keep themselves focused on making better diet and lifestyle choices. By creating a fun, informative, and friendly atmosphere we aim to steer as many people as possible towards achieving optimum health

Every attendee of the wellness club is offered a comprehensive wellness questionnaire, professional body composition analysis and advice on simple changes they can make to improve their lifestyle

The analysis includes a calaculation of body fat%, visceral fat, metabolic age and basal metabolic rate. And taking these measurements on a regular basis will allow you to track your progress much better than stepping on some weight scales only as you tend to find at your average slimming club.

Your BMR refers to the number of  calories your body uses each day, at rest, just to keep all your vital organs functioning."The metabolic rate is directly related to your body composition. Every pound of body fat you have burns only about 2 calories a day. But the rest of you - your lean body mass - burns about 14 calories per pound each day. A big portion of your lean body mass is made up of muscle, so one of the best things you can do to boost your metabolic rate is to build up muscle through strength training.

"After my 2nd child 11yrs ago I have tried every diet going, weight watchers, slimming world, Rosemary Connelly, and also tried to starve myself to lose weight, and even though I lost weight, I found that I didn't have the staying power to see it through and the weight just piled back on again.  When I started the nutrition program and lifestyle changes  I had been advised on in the club I couldn't believe how easy it was.  In my first week I lost 8lbs, my energy levels were going through the roof and my reflux was no longer bothering me.  Just 4 months later I had lost 35lbs and had dropped 2 dress sizes to a 14, I have a spring in my step again and feel and look 10 years younger"

What does your % body fat mean?

You have been working out for for a while now, you go to the gym or you run or you go for long walks and you are addressing the balance of carbs and protein in your diet. Yet one week you get on your scales your weight remains unchanged. Scales are not the only answer to measuring your progress because it does not take into account your body's composition. This is what your body is made up of, how much fat you have relative to lean tissue. By figuring out your body fat percentage you can get a better look at how your body is composed and how "healthy" you are.

Depending on your age, sex  and how active you are the level of your body fat percentage will vary. Your body fat percentage is a measurement of the amount of your total body mass that fat, as opposed to lean body mass (muscle, bones, organs, tissues, blood, and anything else). So, for example, if you weigh 200 pounds and you have 30% body fat, this means that your body contains 60 pounds of fat and 140 pounds of lean body mass.

Measuring changes in body fat percentage, rather than just measuring changes in weight, can be very motivational when you're dieting. A measurement of ones body fat percentage is a more accurate measure of your excess body weight than your BMI, or body mass index, measurement would be because this does not take into account ones body frame size, nor does it account for the amount of muscle mass a person has. However, body fat percentage is not as popular as BMI's because the skills and technology needed to measure body fat percentage are not readily available. Until now..

At your local wellness club you can get these body fat % measurements taken weekly, as well as visceral fat,  metabolic age, muscle mass, % body water, physique rating, BMR and bone mass. All the information you need to monitor your progress. As well as the additional benefits from being a member.

Your body requires a certain amount of fat to function properly. Fat is essential to the body as it helps to regulate temperature, provides insulation and cushioning for organs/tissues, and it is the body's main form of storage. There are some general body fat percentage categories that will help give you an idea of the different levels of body fat:

Acceptable levels of body fat vary depending on age and sex. Healthy body fat percentages for men and women aged 20-39 are levels between 21-32% for women and 8-19% for men; while those who are aged 40-59 will remain healthy by maintaining levels 23-33% for women and 11-21% for men; finally 60 + will be fine with levels of 24-35% for women and 13-24% for men. While athlete's body fat percentages usually range between 14-20% for women and 6-13% for men. See the chart below for more details.

My friend at work started on the diet first She was a size18 and in her 20's we worked alternative shifts two weeks past I had been on day shift she was back shift when I saw her, it was her eyes that drew my attention she looked great her face was glowing and healthy looking that's when I decided I would try it, she lives a bit away from me and would not be convenient for me so decided to go on the internet found a coach and that's when it all started within 3 days of being on Herbal life Products I started to feel the difference it has been like no other healthy eating plan I had done before.

 "Bags of energy, no swelling or IBS"

I have been on the plan for 5 months I am a size 18 and have lost 24% of my body fat and my whole life has changed and the great thing is its been so easy, I go to the gym every second day have bags of energy no swelling no IBS or depression and sleep like a baby. I can now go into all high street shops and buy what I like not what I can get into. There is one thing I am sure about Herbal life will be apart of my life always and wish I had found it sooner, If I had not found it I dread to think of what state my health would be in. So when someone asks what's secret, well that's when there life starts to change.

Starting Size 26
Now Size 18
