Metabolism is the speed at which your body works; some are blessed with a rapid metabolism while others claim that they gain weight simply by “looking at food”.
Genetics can play a role; hypothyroidism or low thyroid can run in families. A simple blood test can determine this and correct an underactive thyroid.
Increasing muscle mass to body fat ratio can also increase metabolism; but what’s the most efficient way to do this? Weight bearing exercise, if done properly, can burn fat and build muscle in as little as 2-3 minutes. Imagine doing 6 exercises in 30 minutes and burning fat in 6 places in your body? Sound too good to be true? It is true; and a gift certificate is ready for our patients that are ready to take that step.
