We all have a friend who crushes enormous amounts of calories, but hardly gains a pound.
.
How is this possible? #justthetiptuesday
.
It could be due to a high NEAT level, not the amount of exercise performed.
.
Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) includes the energy expended maintaining and changing posture and other activities of daily living.
.
“Changes in NEAT accounted for the 10-fold differences in fat storage that occurred and directly predicted resistance to fat gain with overfeeding..These results suggest that as humans overeat, activation of NEAT dissipates excess energy to preserve leanness and that failure to activate NEAT may result in ready fat gain.”
.
Sixteen nonobese subjects were fed an excess of 1000 calories per day for 8 weeks. In that timeframe, NEAT accounted for a 60% increase in daily energy expenditure.
.
On average, the participants burned about 300 calories due to NEAT. But for one of the subjects, that number increased up to 692 calories!
.
Thus, high activity plays a vital role in the prevention of obesity during excess calorie consumption.
