Surveys done on stomach fat prove the fact that, you can burn up 60 calories per day when you develop a fresh pound of muscles. Imparting five pounds of young muscles will burn away 31 pounds of fats yearly.

Your metabolic rate rises when you develop a muscle. This metabolic rate is the amount of calories that will be burnt down when you rest. But this doesn’t meet the anticipated calorie estimate of 50 - 100.

The range from 50 - 100 calories per pound acts as the metabolic rates of muscles. This was studied and proved by the studies which examined the muscle mass and metabolism.

In a study of few similarly treated adult males, during the first eight weeks, the men gained roughly 2.8 pounds of fat-free mass. The average daily metabolic rate is magnified by 263 calories per day.

From week 8 to week 18, the men gained another 1.8 pounds of fat-free mass. This shows that muscle have such a big impact on metabolic process.

When we divide the increasing resting metabolic rate which we have seen as 60 calories by the developed 2.9 pounds of fat free mass, we get the estimate of 20.7 calories per pound.

It’s not for sure that the change in resting metabolic process was because of the extra muscle, or whether it was due to measurement error. The control group in this survey did no exercise, yet their resting metabolic rate was increased by 31 calories per day.

It’s also said that the reason for this increment in the metabolic rates is not only the result of building up a fat free mass, but also the other mechanisms such as the activities of the sympathetic nervous system may be the reason.

It’s obvious that these belly fats are not dead tissues because of their secretions like leptin and cytokines. These secretions are responsible for influencing your metabolic rates. The reports also show that the 2 calories per pound as the metabolic rates of fats.

Foremost you need to have a tummy fat loss program. This program will definitely make your body to burn off more fats after the exercising hours. The people undergo exercises with light weight and more number of repetitions of toning exercises. But these workouts can’t cause post exercising effects on metabolic process.

Second, if you don’t have some kind of resistance exercise while you’re dieting, a lot of the weight you lose will come from muscle rather than fat.
