Build Muscle To Increase Metabolism

Our bodies constantly burn calories, even when we’re doing nothing. This resting metabolic rate is much higher in people with more muscle. Every pound of muscle uses about 6 calories a day just to sustain itself, while each pound of fat burns only 2 calories daily. That small difference can add up over time. In addition, after a bout of resistance training, muscles are activated all over your body, increasing your average daily metabolic rate. -webmd.com

Muscle Looks Smaller Than Fat

It's the fat on your body that makes you look fat. Muscle tissue looks smaller in size than fat of an equivalent weight. The more muscle you have the higher your metabolism will be and the more fat you will burn.
