Lean muscle has more benefits than you’d think. Konforti reminds us, “Muscle is really what gives you that ‘toned’ look. It also speeds up your metabolism so you burn more calories even while resting. The best way to build and maintain lean muscle is with exercise and specifically resistance training.” Yes, it’s true. You can burn more calories while resting and doing absolutely nothing if you build a little bit of muscle.
