Is My Weight Gain Caused by Slowed Metabolism While Aging?

Metabolism is the process through which your body converts food into energy. Even when at rest, you need some energy to aid in breathing, repairing cells, and circulating blood.

You've probably heard that when you hit 40, it's downhill for your weight. The inexplicable force on the metabolism rate begins to grind slower each year from 30 years onwards. Is slowed metabolism the cause of weight gain at old age?

Here's what you should know: studies show that the rate of metabolism slowdown in older age is rather minimal. Additionally, weight gain in midlife is not due to slower metabolism. The reality is that, as we age, we get less active.

Regardless of whether you have a slow or fast metabolic rate, our bodies are synchronized to store excess energy in fat cells. Taking in more calories with reduced body activity (older people are less active) expands your body for weight gain.

They say you have no control over your metabolism, and western culture tells us to eat less and move more. This statement is generalized and metabolism, like nutrition, is individualized. To keep a healthy weight you should reduce and/or CONTROL your calorie intake. Additionally, you should move more. In fact, people who have a faster metabolism, move more.

Start developing these habits slowly and consistently. Nothing is going to happen overnight. Ironically, overnight is where the magic happens. This is where you're in a fasted state so you body can fully digest, repair your muscle tissue broken down, so you can increase your muscle mass, and release growth hormone. Use these guidelines as a daily checklist. You may not be able to exercise 6x/wk ( #1) but you can absolutely accomplish #2-10 everyday. Now get to work 💪🏽😜👊🏽

In the world of health and fitness, setbacks happen to everyone. The most important thing is how you choose to deal with and respond to those setbacks. Real progress is made when you accept that health and fitness isn’t linear and that perfection isn’t possible. Accept responsibility for your actions, take a deep breath, and vow to get back on track.

Nothing is as black and white as we make it seem, and you are not good or bad if you made poor food choices or skipped a workout. Acknowledge your shortcomings and take the time to figure out how you might avoid a particular setback in the future.

Have a plan: create a workout schedule, make time in your week to shop for and prep whole and healthy meals ahead of time, set aside time in your workday to get in some extra steps, movement or stretching– whatever it may be.

Make the commitment to yourself to keep moving forward and not let setbacks be the reason you give up on your health and fitness journey.

The Key to Lasting Change/Results

Focusing on and being consistent with healthy habits is the absolute best action you can take, right now, to attain the results you’re after and achieve lasting change. Simple yet specific dietary and physical activity habits like drinking enough water each day, including colorful vegetables on your plates each day or getting in at least 10,000 steps, are all great places to start. You don’t have to do them all at once, either. Pick one or two healthy habits to work on for a few weeks; make it so easy at first that you physically can’t fail. You’ll distract yourself from the constant worrying about the scale, and when you focus on these things, lasting and meaningful change will follow. Consistency is found in those small, repetitive, seemingly unimportant decisions you make each and every day. Slow it down, stop putting so much pressure on yourself and make the decisions that allow you to feel your best. Whether that means losing weight, getting stronger or faster, or simply trying to make better dietary choices for yourself each day, your success on this journey will depend on your consistency over the long-haul.

It's simple but it's not easy. Let's break it down real quick:
Weekly hrs- 168
Min hrs of exercise- 4/wk
Avg hrs of sleep- 56
That leaves 108 hrs/wk to be mindful of nutrition.

Tracking your food and tracking your progress eventually develops the habit and gives you the knowledge of what works for you.

3 pillars of fitness success are Nutrition, Strength Training and cardio. Cardio is the smallest piece of the puzzle. Any questions?
