]]> Comment on Yes Muscle is the Key to Burning Fat! by Nate Alexander: Long Beach Personal Trainer http://ptwithnate.com/yes-muscle-is-the-key-to-burning-fat/comment-page-1/#comment-9 Nate Alexander: Long Beach Personal Trainer Wed, 10 Dec 2008 09:51:18 +0000 http://ptwithnate.com/?p=9#comment-9 This was a figure that really stuck with me. I learned it back when I worked at 24 Hour Fitness when we were going through the APEX Nutrition Program. One thing I found tonight since you asked: <blockquote>In fact putting on around 0.5 kg (1.1lb) of muscle will allow you to eat an extra 300 calories per week without affecting your weight.</blockquote> http://healthfitness.com.au/articles/weights/weightloss.html roughly 42 cals per lb/day. There are some e-zine articles plastered all over online saying 2 cals for fat and 6 cals for muscle….per lb per day. That seems ridiculous. 10lbs of muscle would only burn an extra 60 cals? Doesn’t seem to correlate. BUT…I just calculated on a general calorie calc and at 185 I need 2560 cals maintenance and at 195 I need 2626. So right around 6 cals per lb. On Mayo Clinic’s calculator: At 185 2650 cals At 195 2750 cals No regard for fat or muscle, just weight. For the average American, I’d guess….its a mix of the two. I go with the higher numbers for pure muscle. Especially taking into consideration an active individual who anaerobically exercises. The metabolic boost from oxygen debt (excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)) alone will kick your BMR up. Thats a whole different blog post in itself.
