Many individuals believe that strength training adds muscle mass,thereby increasing their resting metabolic rate, so they burn morecalories all day, which helps them lose weight. While scientificresearch has documented that metabolic rate is acutely elevated after aworkout, it's not as certain that resting metabolic rate is chronicallyincreased. The Resting Metabolic Rate Debate reviews the researchon the effects of aerobic exercise and strength training on restingmetabolic rate and details the scientific “truth” about this complexissue.

Among the topics covered:
  • The resting metabolic rate debate
  • Effect of exercise on resting metabolic rate
  • Studies showing an increase in resting metabolic rate
  • Studies showing no change in resting metabolic rate
