Strength training is often associated with building muscle, but it also plays a crucial role in boosting metabolism. Muscle tissue is metabolically active, meaning it burns more calories at rest compared to fat tissue. By increasing muscle mass through strength training, you can elevate your resting metabolic rate, leading to more calories burned throughout the day. This makes strength training a valuable component of a metabolic reset plan. Incorporating strength training into your fitness routine can be done with various exercises, such as weightlifting, resistance band workouts, or bodyweight exercises like push-ups and squats. Aim to include strength training sessions at least 2-3 times per week, focusing on all major muscle groups. In addition to boosting metabolism, strength training improves bone density, enhances functional strength, and supports overall physical health. By building muscle, you not only increase your metabolic rate but also improve your body's ability to perform daily activities with ease.
