Weight loss is a complicated and a rather complex issue. Losing weight isn't easy at all but it can be made easy in a manner where the target weight can be achieved with a little hard work and commitment; but the biggest challenge is keeping that weight off.
Undoubtedly, gaining weight is the easiest thing to do for people who have a tendency of putting on fat easily due to their slow metabolism. At the other end of the spectrum, losing weight can seem strenuous and sometimes impossible given the amount of effort it requires.
It is often said that exercising and portion control can help in maintaining your weight. However, this simple strategy is not effective for everyone; The Daily Mail says that the results were formulated as an outcome of the analysis of the 'World's Biggest Loser' reality show. A total of fourteen participants became a part of it and lost more than 100 pounds in a span of thirty weeks.
The weight of the former participants was analyzed after a course of six weeks, and an interesting thing was noticed. Every single one of them gained weight, except one. Reviewing the cause, the main reason is that the process of weight loss makes the resting metabolism go down.
The main challenge now arises that how you should keep the resting metabolism rate from dropping after weight loss, however, it is achievable according to science. The basic key is to activate the deep muscles in the leg. Those muscles in motion keep the blood stream active and mobilized.
Recently, the role of these muscles, which are called the soleus muscles are the current focus of the study of the people recently as well. These muscles are also called secondary muscles; that play a part in pumping blood back to the heart.
