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.

Genetics dictates that males have a learner built than women. It is also known that men develop more muscles as they reach puberty. As opposed to the female physique, the male body has a easier time building muscle mass. This shouldn't be discouraging news to females, as this main feature is considered to be masculine, while femininity is associated with a "softer" body. In addition, females can develop muscle mass of their own, although it can be a little harder to do.

The reason why muscle mass is more prominent in males is due to testosterone. This male hormone is found in high levels in males, while remaining at low levels in females. This male hormone is responsible for a number of tasks. Among them, creating muscle tissue within the body. Muscle in turn, burns off fat, and the more you have, the learner you become. This is why males are able to lose weight quicker than females.

Men should eat more protein-rich foods such as lean meat, poultry, and legumes to increase muscle mass. This allows the body to more effectively reduce the proportion of fat to lean mass. For male fat loss to occur more quickly, exercise should comprise the main foundation in any plans that are made. Exercise can take many forms and is not limited to spending hours in the gym.

Becoming more physically active includes playing sports such as basketball, football, soccer, hockey, lacrosse, baseball, tennis and volleyball. All of these are some examples of popular sports that can lead to weight loss. Apart from participating in sports, it can be beneficial to jog, run, bike-ride, roller-skate or swim to increase your endurance.

Even though sports are effective, the number one choice activity for fat loss, is lifting weights. This, by far is the best solution for building muscle. Exercising requires more dedication and patience. Results don't appear overnight, but once you lift weights regularly, you will notice a difference in how your look. Overall, it is much easier to burn fat for men than women, for these obvious reasons. Still, anyone can reach their goals no matter what their gender is. All that is needed is a will to push yourself out of your comfort zone.
