Male Weight Loss

By Sammy Ason


Male weight loss is said to be different than female weight loss. That is because the male body has unique characteristics that set it apart from the female body. What this means is that although both sexes can lose weight if they choose, males have a slight advantage in this arena. This should not discourage females from attempting to lose weight since it is achievable regardless of any differences.

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.

In order to develop muscles, one should increase their consumption of protein. This can be accomplished by eating foods such as beef, poultry, fish and dairy products. In addition a great source of protein is present in legumes and various nuts. Another alternative would be to make shakes using whey protein. When there is more protein in the body, the building of muscles takes place. For the best possible results, one should also engage in working to increase muscle size.

To become fit and lean, a variety of physical activities should be on your fat loss checklist. Playing sports and keeping active can accelerate weight loss. Bonus benefits of exerting your body is added strength and stamina. Other activities such as running or riding a bike can also have the same effect, while being fun at the same time.

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.
