You need to build your muscles mass up if you would like to keep those calories coming off even after you stop your exercise routine for the day. This is one reason working out with weights will put your weight loss goals into overdrive.
|
One pound of muscle mass added to your body can burn up to 50 extra calories each and every day. Lifting weights will burn away the fat during your workout and will continue to do so after you have stopped exercising for the day.

As you build up your endurance and can lift heavier weights, you will burn more calories. The stronger you become the quicker those fat reserves will go away.
