How Men Lose Weight

By Sammy Ason


In comparing males and females, there are certain similarities that can be seen. Both sexes can achieve fat loss and change their bodies if they desire. But males have the clear advantage when it comes to shedding the fat. The difference that allows this to occur is that males are more prone to physical and strenuous activity, while females shy from it, understandably so. But this shouldn't discourage them into thinking that they have no chance to lose weight.

In addition, males are naturally muscular and tend to have a higher percentage of it in their body. The male physique is designed to be leaner than the female version. It is also natural for males to develop muscles as they reach the development stages of their lives. But this doesn't mean that women don't carry muscle, they do, but at lesser amounts than males.

It is a fact that the male hormone testosterone is present in a much higher rate in men than women. Testosterone causes the male body to develop a more muscle mass and is more conducive in the weight loss process as a result. Testosterone leads to muscle development and muscles are more likely to accelerate the rate at which fat is burned from the body. Males should take comfort in having a slight advantage over women in that muscle is key to fat loss. But that does not mean they should slack off and not participate in training their bodies to burn fat.

For the best possible outcomes, men should consume foods such as beef, chicken and fish, as these are high in protein. Other food choices that contain protein are legumes and nuts. The presence of protein in the body enables muscle production to occur. Without protein, muscle mass in a male is at its lowest. In addition to developing a protein-rich diet, exercise should be the next priority for those seeking to burn off fat.

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.

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.
