6 Week Body Makeover - Body Type D

By Frank Further

Did you take the 6 Week Body Makeover Blue Print? What type of body do you have? Are you classified as a "D" person? This post will describe the attributes of a "D" body type and the reason why you're fat.

Your body type has a slower metabolism compared to the others. The reason why your metabolism is so slow is because your body has trouble building and maintaining lean muscle. Metabolism converts food into energy and lean muscle is the building block of having a fast metabolism. Your lack of lean muscle mass is what is causing you to be fat and slow down your metabolic rate.

Your metabolism's speed is a primary factor of fat loss and fat gain. Your body is very heavy due to fat and not from lean muscle (remember than lean muscle weighs more than fat). D people tend to have soft droopy flesh with thin muscles.

The reason why you're overweight can be summed up by two primary reasons. The first factor is that you have a very slow metabolism that does not break down calories as fast as other body types. The other reason is because you do not have enough lean muscle mass to help your metabolism burn food energy fast enough to lose weight.

Genetics play an important part in your weight gain and your body's inability to lose weight. Another reason why you cannot lose weight is because of lifestyle choice. A sedentary lifestyle is a "double whammy" to fat gain.

Dieting can cause weight gain due to many reasons. The more you starve yourself, the more your body will seek energy from other sources. Diets with low carbohydrate intake are especially bad because your body start eating your lean muscle tissue. Since D body types do not have an adequate amount of lean muscle tissue, dieting will basically destroy what little muscle tissue you already had.

There is a right way and a wrong way to lose weight. Short term diets are very closed minded and do not focus on long-term effects. Learning how to eat right using program such as the 6 Week Body Makeover are the best way to lose weight and eat healthy for the rest of your life.
