Lean body mass (muscle mass)

44
Q

Explain relationship between RMR , calories burnt and muscle mass

A

Calories we burn at rest, depends largely on how much muscle mass we have so the more muscle mass we have the faster our metabolism is. Similarly as our muscle mass decreases the resting, metabolic rate decreases.

Increase in the size of fat cells

61
Q

How does weight gain affect adipocytes

A

Hyperplasia and hypertrophy the increase in the number of fat cells, and the fat cells increase in size

62
Q

How does weight loss affect adipocytes

A

Only hypertrophy a curse. Once you’ve gained a significant amount of weight, you never be able to get rid of your fat cells, you can only decrease them in size.
