THE PERSONAL GYM®
BOOSTS YOUR METABOLISM
Muscle has a much higher metabolic rate than fat. By performing
resistance exercise to increase your lean, muscle mass, you increase the
metabolic rate at which your body burns calories, resulting in the loss of
unwanted pounds. Not only are calories burned when you are performing
these exercises, but the process also continues all day long, even when
you are not exercising.
Think of muscle as fire. Fire
burns fuel. Muscle needs fuel to function.
Muscle’s fuel is calories. If you want a big fire to last, you
must keep adding fuel for it to burn.
In a like manner, if you
increase your muscle mass, your body requires more calories to sustain it.
These additional calories can be obtained from more food or from burning
the stored fuel in your body (that is, fat).
By not increasing the amount of calories taken in, the body will
begin to burn the calories contained in the fat. Soon the body will begin
to lose pounds and be transformed into a lean efficient calorie-burning
machine.
In addition to resistance exercise producing a leaner, healthier body,
it also lowers the risk of musculoskeletal injury.
The Personal Gym® gives you an easy way to perform
muscle- building, resistance
exercises anywhere any time.
