11 Things That Could Be Impacting Your Weight – Longevity LIVE – Longevity LIVE

Counteract your sedentary lifestyle by incorporating micro-movements throughout the day. In other words, try to increase your daily step count. Get up and move for at least ten minutes every hour. Consider parking further away from the storefront or taking the elevator instead of the stairs. These micro-movements contribute to your NEAT Non-exercise activity thermogenesis, A.K.A, every move you make that isnt exercising. In other words, moving even the slightest bit more can make a big difference over time.

As mentioned before, weight gain is not synonymous with fat gain. If your new workout routine incorporates resistance and strength training, youll start to build muscle.

Its a myth that muscle weighs more than fat; five pounds is five pounds, whether its muscle, fat, feathers, or rocks. However, muscle is denser than fat, meaning more muscle fits in less space. As you start to build muscle and lose fat, the scale might stay the same.

If youre incorporating strength training into your workout routine, consider using other metrics to track your progress. Rather than using the scale which cant differentiate between fat, muscle, and water use progress photos, measurements, and how your clothing feels on your body.

If fat loss is your goal, its worth incorporating strength work into your exercise routine and shifting your mindset about numbers on the scale. Maintaining muscle burns more calories than maintaining fat as a part of your baseline TDEE. In other words, simply having more muscle will burn more calories even when you arent working out.

There are a lot of factors that contribute to weight loss, beyond eating less and moving more. Before you start cutting out food groups or paying for the next fad diet, consider evaluating the different variables on this list to determine whether theres an underlying issue.
