Build Muscle - 50 Ways to Get Super Fit This Year - Shape Magazine

Every pound of muscle you add can help burn an extra 45 calories per day. So if you beeline it for the weight room and pack on 10 pounds of lean muscle, then your body can continue to torch 450 calories daily well after you've left the gym, even if you?re chained to a desk for most of the day. At that rate, you can lose almost a pound of fat per week. Source: Tanya Zuckerbrot, R.D., author of the Miracle Carb Diet
