Age Related Weight Gain

Between age 20 and 50, most Americans percent body fat doubles. This is mainly due to a decrease in metabolism. As you age, your activity level tends to decrease. With decreased activity, muscle tissue is lost. To preserve this precious tissue, you need to start placing emphasis on strength training. Just make sure that you check with your doctor before starting any exercise regimen.

One of the keys to strength training is to always schedule a day off - no aerobic exercise or strength exercises. You need to let your body recover.

One of the other very important things for you to do is to eat, small, frequent meals throughout the day. This will help speed up metabolism for any age person.

Remember that the one constant that you cannot change is your age. Therefore it is up to you to change the things that you can. The basic formula for weight loss is increased activity and decreased caloric intake. Try to eat 5 small meals a day, as early in the day as possible. Don't eat anything for at least 4 hours before you go to bed. Get some form of exercise every day but make sure that you also have a day of rest.
