Weight Loss Tip: no.67
Make lifting weights a priority.
Care to guess why?
Yup, weightlifting should be an important part of your weight loss plan because when you lose weight, you also lose muscle. On account of muscle being a tissue that helps the body burn calories at rest, the loss of muscle can slow down the metabolism and result in weight rebound and even more being gained when you end calorie restriction and return to a higher intake of food. By lifting weights, especially in combination with a high protein diet, you can preserve muscle to prevent the described situation from happening.
