The retrieved literature includes limited direct data on metabolism-driven weight loss, but physical activity sources indicate exercise speeds up metabolism and helps manage body composition.
The effects of either high-intensity resistance or endurance training on resting metabolic rate.
The effects of either 12-wk of high-intensity endurance or resistance training on resting metabolic rate (RMR) were investigated in 47 males aged 18-35 y. Subjects were randomly assigned to either a control (C), resistance-trained (RT) or endurance-trained (ET) group. After training both exercise groups showed significant declines in relative body fat either by reducing their total fat weight and maintaining fat-free weight (ET) or by reducing their total fat weight and increasing fat-free weight (RT). RMR did not significantly change after either training regimen although a small decline in energy intake was observed along with an increase in energy expenditure [ET, 2.721 MJ (650 kcal) per training day]. These results suggest that both endurance and resistance training may help to prevent an attenuation in RMR normally observed during extended periods of negative energy balance (energy intake less than expenditure) by either preserving or increasing a person's fat-free weight.

Sport is physical activity which is very important for body health. Physical fitness is the body's ability to function effectively at work or other activities. The research method in this article is a literature review to find sports activities that can be beneficial improves the immune system, mental health, metabolic health, muscle strength and function cardiovascular, increasing endurance, lowering cholesterol, reducing stress, burning fat, increasing immunity, preventing illness, improving blood circulation, and maintaining healthy bones and joints. If the exercise you do is not appropriate, it will have a bad impact in the future. To prevent disorders and decline, especially muscle size and strength, you can done with regular strength training. Exercising regularly can improve a person's quality of life, make the body healthier and stronger, and reduce the risk of disease. Exercise also helps increase flexibility, muscle elasticity and blood circulation, as well as speeding up the body's metabolism. Thus, exercising regularly and structured can be an integral part of a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
