REVIEW
The part of the body made up of muscles, bones, ligaments and tendons is called Lean body mass.
Height and weight charts can be misleading because they do not tell you how much of your weight is lean body mass and how much is body fat.
Overweight means exceeding desirable body weight by 10 percent.
REVIEW
Ideal body weight is best described as how much you should weigh if you have an appropriate percentage of body fat
Because of today’s lifestyles, American youth are fatter than they have been in the past 30 years
People who develop extra fat cells early in life will have more difficulty with weight control
REVIEW
How many calories is each pound of body weight equivalent to 3500 calories.
The most effective way to achieve permanent weight loss is a combination of increasing calories burned and reducing calories consumed.
In a weight loss program, it is recommended that you lose no more than 1 to 2 pounds per week.
