In this post. I’ll look at a side of the human body that there are still many people who don’t know about, when it comes to calculating their body weight. That is there is a difference in what muscle tissue and fat weigh, by volume.
Muscle Weighs More Than Fat
All weight, when it comes to the human body, is not equal. It’s a fact that muscle tissue, by volume weighs more than fat. When embarking on a weight loss program of any kind, the very last thing you should lose is muscle tissue! That’s because its your muscles that do the work that causes your body to burn off the calories it consumes. If your muscles are working hard, they’ll burn off more calories the more mass they consist of and the more you use them, the stronger they’ll become and subsequently the more calories they will burn for a given amount of work.
For this one major reason, it’s so important to make sure you get regular exercise and a daily routine is a great idea as long as that fits in your schedule. That’s because without any exercise, your body will burn its way through the muscle tissue first. Eventually you’ll end up being even more imbalanced in your muscle to fat ratio than you were even to begin with.
To lose weight and stand a good chance of keeping that weight off. you really want your body to be burning as much fat as it can and not muscle. So if you want to lose that extra weight, you really want to lose all your fat weight and not your muscle mass to stay healthy and maintain a healthy level of body weight.
