what is metabolic fitness?

Rona Espalin: Thankyou all for your replies and opinions.

Keven Drumgole: Ooo! Just did this in Biology! Metabolic rate is the overall ability of your cells to extract and use energy from food in order to maintain itself. You eat, your digestive tract sorts out what you can use and stores it up and the body uses it as needed. If your cells are highly efficient, you go through the process quickly and your cells are eager to do it again, like the little suck-ups they are, and you have lots of energy at your disposal. Sometimes the process takes longer and more work can pile up while the cells plod along and it gets backlogged. Fats, carbs, and proteins all sort of stand around feeling stupid while waiting in line, like people at the BMV. It's genetic and age can play a role. You can, however, increase your metabolism through exercises. If your not highly active, build up your activity level a little at a time. If you exercises a lot all at once, your body won't quite ! know what to do with itself, since it's not used to needing so much energy. You won't get any benefit busting your butt all at once and you'll just get sweaty and tired for nothing. Even if you have a high metabolic rate you can put on a lot of weight if you aren't active enough. I have a fairly high metabolism, but I find that eating in the morning plus a little light exercises helps boost it. I walk 15 minutes to catch a bus to work. If you drive to work or school in the morning, try parking a bit farther away than you usually would. Small meals throughout the day are better than two or three big ones, too (my mother says I don't eat, I graze). I hope that was alright. I sometimes wonder if people understand me and my explanations (which is bad since I want to go into education)....Show more

Scot Rotruck: For the best answers, search on this site https://shorturl.im/avtG9-Eat breakfast. You metabolism is slow in the morning becasue you have been fasting all night. E! ating breakfast revs it up. -Eat 5-6 small meals throughout th! e day. Same principal, when you go to long without eating your metabolism slows. Eat something at least every 3 hours. -Build muscle through resistance training. The more muscle you have the higher your metabolic rate because muscle is active tissue and burns calories even at rest. -Drink lots and lots of water. Being sufficiently hydrated makes you body carry out its metabolic processes more effiecintly....Show more

Sheree Hipwell: metabolic fitness is to do with your metabolism. metabolism is the amount of calories our bodys burn to just stay alive and keep comfotably warm. This can be raised by exercising and having more muscle mass to body fat, the higher your metabolism the mroe calories you'll burn a day meaning youll lose more weight. Fitness is our overall fitness of our bodies
