Dieting and Fat / Muscle Loss
dieting is traditionally a loosing of fats, muscle and water. A person undergoing dieting can successfully lose weight without surrendering much fat. People who are over-weight they should lose fats only while preserving muscles as they burn more calories as compared to fats. If some one has more muscles then he shall definitely have higher metabolism which results in burning of more calories. A muscle at rest burns fourteen kilocalories per pound. Muscles are much denser so muscle loss always result in loss in physical bulk in comparison with loss of fats. It can be easily gauged with method of ‘body fat percentage’ that whether loss in weight has occurred because of fats or otherwise.
