Rev Up Your Metabolism

Part of maintaining a lean physique is keeping your metabolism on a constant high. Aerobics and good genes can help with this. However, when all else fails, there are a couple of tricks you can fall back on.

  • Find a Good Source of High Quality Arganine. The amino acid, arganine, is suspected to play a significant role  in the promotion of weight loss in men. While many protein mixes have this vital amino acid, you’ll also find it in many natural food sources, including watermelon.
  • Eat Plenty of Iron– Iron is known to carry oxygen to your muscles during your workout. It also does this while you are at rest, which is exactly what the body needs to burn fat. It is especially easy to boost the amount of iron you get in your diet, as there is an abundance of sources, including spinach, lean meats, shellfish, and beans.
  • Soak Up Plenty of Vitamin D– Vitamin D is essential for preserving the fat burning muscle tissue in your body. If you are not getting enough of this essential vitamin, which 80 percent of men are not, you are only spinning your wheels when it comes to fat loss. Vitamin D can be soaked in through the skin by the sun, or digested by such natural food sources as salmon, tuna, and eggs.
