Weekly Nutrition Tip - Revving Up Metabolism
Revving Up Metabolism
by Dr. John Berardi
I recommend more calories than most do. That’s because there’s no such thing as a stagnant metabolic set-point. Instead, metabolism chases intake. So, if you want a bigger metabolism, you need a bigger food intake. And if you’re worried about fat gain with this approach, just use outcome-based decision making and adjust energy (calorie) intake every two weeks based on your results. Not much ‘damage’ can take place in only two weeks. So if you end up boosting your metabolism, you’ll be thanking me eternally. And if it turns out you’re consuming too much, you can just adjust down.

While having a high metabolism sounds great to lose eight when trying to build muscle, skinny bodybuilding by slim guys is tough going because of the same metabolism that keeps fat off.
Make sure your goal for fitness is therefore set for losing weight or gaining muscle and think about your metabolism in regards to this goal!
metabolism is the bestway ever to gain fitness ..
One thing I’ve learned is to eat as soon as you get up, a high protein and healthy fat breakfast, but stop eating at least 3 hours before going to bed.
If you want to take part in revving up your metabolism, I’d suggest exercising more. If you have a sluggish metabolism, the weekly nutrition tip gave here about eating more, doesn’t make sense to me. I can see the point it is making, somewhat, but I think activity triumphs in that particular case. Plus, if one has a really slow metabolism, they may want to try green tea, ginseng and cayenne pepper supplements, for starters.
