Huberman Lab Clips(@HLPClips):A pound of muscle doesn't burn 50 calories a day: - 50 kcal per pound per day was the number taught in undergrad. Recent estimates are a tenth of that: 6 to 10 calories - Put on 5 pounds and your basal metabolic rate goes up maybe 30 to 40 calories a day. Over 1000 days that adds up - One bad food choice is a couple hundred calories and outkicks almost any muscle you added - Build the muscle anyway. Too little of it makes fat loss harder for other reasons Worrying about the burn is stepping over a dollar to pick up a dime. Fat loss is about regulating intake. @DrAndyGalpin on @hubermanlab
