6. KNOWING THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT... METABOLISM Scientific Definition the rate in which the body makes or breaks chemical bonds. Metabolism is the rate in which one's body burns off and utilizes calories. Changing food into energy and using the energy to make your hair grow or your lungs transferring oxygen to the bloodstream! Determined by one's genetic and amount of fat vs. muscle The higher the better

7. 1. BASAL RESTING METABOLISM Basal metabolic rate, or BMR, to determine how many calories your body burns at rest. BMR accounts for 60 to 75% of your caloric burn for the day. Example: surfing the web, your heart pumping blood, your eyes blinking.

8. 2. DIGESTIVE METABOLISM Thermic effect of food (TEF): turning carbs into sugar and turning protein into amino acids—typically burns 10 to 15% of your daily calories. Digesting protein burns more calories than digesting carbohydrates or fat about 25 calories for every 100 consumed (protein) about 10-15 calories for every 100 consumed (carbs. & fats)

9. 3. EXERCISE AND MOVEMENT METABOLISM This part of your metabolism includes exercises; running, playing sports, riding your bike with friends.

That's why fat hates muscle (and why you should love muscle), because muscle is constantly burning fat off. Muscle is power! At rest, 1 pound of muscle burns 3 x as many calories every day just to sustain itself Most of those calories that muscle burns off come from fat's storage units. Adipose Tissue

12. FAT FIGHTS BACK! Fat tries to erode muscle and to fit more of its fat friends into your body. Visceral fat: resides behind the abdominal muscles, surrounding your internal organs. Visceral fat also will mess with the hormones in your body that regulate your metabolism... which is why fat is bad!
