Men, thanks to their body composition, have more muscle and a higher metabolic rate than women, Lowden said. Since all of the participants were following a.The Verdict: Men do lose weight faster than women, at least at first Men tend to have more lean muscle tissue, which burns more calories than body fat, even during rest.The simple truth is that men are larger and have more muscle than women due to the hormone testosterone. They are genetically designed to have a higher percentage of muscle and less fat
The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, even when you’re at rest, so it stands to reason that men will lose weight faster simply because they have more metabolically active muscle. Women are predisposed to store and retain fat.Because men have more muscle mass, they burn about 20 percent more calories doing nothing, even at the same height, and men are on average 5 inches taller than women, which further widens the calorie burning gap. Tip: If you “split” an appetizer, dessert or pizza, make it a 60/40 or 70/30 share rather than 50/50.Men can typically lose weight faster than women because of different hormones and due to the fact they have more lean tissue loss during initial weight loss compared to women.
Men usually have a higher metabolic rate compared to women which is advantageous when trying to lose weight.Usually, it’s harder for women to lose weight than men. Certain factors can make women take longer to lose weight than men which include: 1. Hormonal imbalance Women experience hormone fluctuations more than men especially during menstruation, pregnancy, or when breastfeeding and at menopause.Regardless of who fits into a smaller size faster, the impact of weight loss is similar: In the Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism study, both men and women experienced decreases in their blood glucose levels and no longer had pre-diabetes; reductions in body mass index are also associated with reduced risk of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, Type 2 diabetes, cancer and stroke.
The myth that men lose weight faster than women is anything but a myth. The subtle differences between male weight loss and female weight loss.According to the study published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, men lose weight faster than women.
To reach this conclusion, research was conducted with the participation of 2,000 people from different countries.We all know that calories are king when it comes to weight loss, the larger the deficit, the faster the weight loss occurs (to a degree). Since the men had a larger daily calorie deficit than women, it makes sense that they would have experienced a greater total bodyweight reduction.A speedy metabolism will go a long way in the war against fat. So already, men have the advantage.
A large study from the UK found that men lost weight roughly twice as fast as women. But women did catch up eventually.Sad to say, men do lose weight faster than women. Men and women usually lose weight at different levels due to physical differences. Men’s bodies are typically bigger and have much more muscle, and they are likely to burn off fat faster because of these factors.
And since more muscle means a faster resting metabolism, men’s bodies naturally burn calories at a faster rate. But with a little work, women can even up the odds a bit. To build more muscle and get your engine revving, pick up some weights.
Men have a tendency to lose weight at a fairly even pace. Women on the other hand, often get stuck at multiple points during the dieting process. My feeling is this is not only hormonal (yes, we have that monthly event during our childbearing years.

If only the rest of the fitness industry was like this guy, thank you!
The biggest factor is that people are lazy. A lazy womans excuse will be that men lose weight easier and a lazy mans excuse will be that you take some sort of drug or that its just genetically easier for you. Rarely will people simply admit that you took control of your mind and busted your ass.
I got on the scale today after two weeks off the gym and my healthy eating and thank goodness I watched this after. I’d been on vacation, gotten a cold and then my period and it was way up. But I needed the reminder that it is not fat gain so not to beat myself up but also not to celebrate too much when it drops after getting back on track.
because men work physically harder than women women usually have a lot easier job they don’t have to lift anything over usually 10 pounds
My favorite thing you said was about how mean we are to ourselves and before you are negative to yourself ask would you say this to friend. I think this is so powerful and something I have started to incorporate in my journey.
I hate the fact that men lose weight faster the women………n u cant change my mind i fucking hate it!
Seriously, I have loved doing measurements on my journey versus focusing solely on weight. Ever week I weigh in and do measurements. Not every day every day weigh ins are the worst for me:/. I also do progress pics every other month. It is so much more encouraging especially when working out and putting on muscle. Sometimes I end up heavier one week but my measurements are smaller
I know it’s science and it’s hormones and the scale shouldn’t matter as much as the fact that I’m losing inches but it DOES!! I don’t know why but I want that damn number to keep going down!
Your channel is one of the few that considers women in your videos.
Just curious why aren’t people subscribing you you’re a treasure of knowledge ♥️
I’m lmao at the start of video, I was dying laughing ����������, this was so me raging,angry female at the weighing scale
Men lose weight faster because they eversize more
Boys get stronger faster that’s why they burn more calories
#sortinghatsquad totally move the scale every damn day ���� too funny and stupid at the same time!
The REAL answer is men are more mentally tough/stable than women. Just being real here. Even at my fattest, I NEVER did any of these crazy binge-purge cycles I hear all these women talk about. I had nowhere NEAR the emotional issues that women have. Basically, women are more emotional than men, and this is why.
I’ve watched several professional trainers on YouTube, both males and females, and he is the FIRST person to mention a women’s period as a factor. It’s refreshing that someone (especially a man) is willing to talk about it point blank.
I’m still waiting for you to explain Why do men lose weight faster than women. That’s the title of this 26 minutes video, and you mentioned it once for aprox 5 seconds.
I love the train example! I’ll definitely be keeping that in mind.
My solution to the scale issue is to use an old fashioned balance scale, and only move the indicator in the downward direction. I do a lot of computer benchmarking and think of this as the guaranteed not to be lower weight recording method. This only works as long as I know I’m eating and exercising the way I know I should.
Here from Matt’s channel, and this video is truly very illuminating. I think I knew beforehand that a lot of the reason why I’ve never stuck to a diet or fitness regimen is a lot to do with mental hangups about my weight and appearance, but I don’t think I’ve ever realized how much negative selftalk I give myself. Thanks for this, I will keep this in mind from now on.
Took me years to get on the rolling average excel sheet game. Looking at the info scientifically sure helps with the mend bending games. #sortinghatsquad. Love you J ������
#sortinghatsquad If I had something salty the day before I don’t bother to weigh until I lose the bloat. It messes with my head lol
can you do some content on losing weight while breast feeding? #sortinghatsquad
I have absolutely got off the scale, adjusted its placement on the floor and tried it again, lol. #sortinghatsquad
Women’s weight loss can be more difficult than men’s weight loss. Women’s bodies are made differently and those differences can impact weight. Learn the differences and get advice on what you can do to support one another on your #WeightLoss journey in this week’s #HealthyEating video.
I’ve never related to a video so much lol.. I plateau every 10lbs or so and I’ll bounce between 151 and 153 lbs (for example) for what seems like forever. It’s so frustrating lol.
Please make a video on anxiety! I struggle with it and would love to hear your thoughts…and maybe some day pick your brain in the #sortinghatsquad
Where have you been all my adult life!? Everything you talk about is me… it’s like you’re freakishly in my head! Then, you explain it and make it simple to understand… because it is. I’ve been following you for only a couple months, but I feel so much better about eating, training, weight loss… everything. So, thank you from the bottom of my muggle heart ❤
Thank you Susan for addressing my question. We actually are both on your Bootcamp which started this January making steady progress. My husband is already 8 lbs away from his goal weight, but I still have some time to go. I have given myself a year to lose the weight, but I may get there sooner. According to my “Monitor my Weight” app prediction I may get there by mid August. Yay!
I love how openly you talk about periods. For lots of coaches, especially male coaches, it seems like a taboo subject. Which is so weird because it’s a HUGE part of the female body and female weight loss.
#SortingHatSquad So many of your videos on IG just get me. I have gotta start coming here to watch more of them in full!
Yup. Been there done that. Thank you for all of your videos and posts! #sortinghatsquad ��♥️
I just can’t wrap my head around not eating all the fucking time. I try and I just get out of control all the time. I treat myself like an asshole and I’m so sick of it. #sortinghatsquad
I weigh, record my weight and forget the number. I go off a weekly average, it’s all cool:)
I love your videos! I want to be in the inner circle!! #sortinghatsquad
I always love your videos. I think the most life changing thing you’ve said for me is “treat yourself like you treat your friends” Honestly it was a game changer.
The video about stress sounds amazing Pls pls pls make it #sortinghatsquad
I would love a video about just stress. I’m on day 3 of trying to get back on track after being crappy all summer. But thank you for your videos, I always find them so motivational. #sortinghatsquad
I have found if I weigh every day that I if I lose any weight then I tend to eat more. That is why I only weigh once a month. Maybe I will change to oncr a week.
Yes please on the stress video and how to solve the negative impact!
I wanted to let you know i stepped on the scale and it went up this AM and instead of hating myself and quitting or starving myself today I heard your voice….”hmm extra sodium yesterday? Did you go to the bathroom yesterday? I wonder what pattern your fluctuation will fall into…” and then I wrote down my number and moved on. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve learned that I shouldn’t tell friends im trying to lose weight. I’m doing everything right and it’s going slower then I want to and they are tearing into me saying I must be closet eating or eating the wrong things etc… Maybe you can include that tip in a future video!
Thé train analogy and treating yourself like your bestfriend part really got me. Great video! your knowledge is amazing
I’m learning to get along better with myself and with the MF* scale hahahah, thanks a lot Syatt! Great video.
women dont have enough strenght to lift heavy weight and lifting weight makes metabolism fast so it helps with fat loss
there are so many ways to lose weight, but there are few to lose it well, working primarily on fat.
Thanks #sortinghatsquad
#SORTINGHATSQUAD magnesium supplements keep me super regular and help me sleep. Never miss.
One of the best channels I see, ������������������������������������������������
For me mild the “PMS time” leads to reduced digestion, bloating, less activity, more hunger (actual hunger) and water weight. As soon as “the flow” starts the extra weight drops again.
So, don’t worry if you don’t lose weight or even gain in a certain time of the month. It will solve itself.
how long does it take for metabolic adaptaion to occur, i cut my calories from 2600 to 1600 because my body wasnt loosing any weight, i cant sustain this and i want to go back to 2600 but is it not a good idea, i lost weight before but regained it all back plus more, i dont want to do the same, so far i went back to 1800, should i add 100 cals a week back to 2600? has my body already adapted to low cals and i cant jump straight back to 2600
PLEASE make a video about stress!
the overly stressed out pre-med student
So glad I found this channel!! Thank you to @Matt D’Avella!
Jordan, your content has kept me motivated and has been SUPER helpful. I’ve been tracking my weight & body composition breakdown everyday, and was happy to see your video weight fluctuation. Mine was peaking and valleying over the past 6 months, but it is ultimately going down. Thank you for your content and bringing simplicity back to health and fitness!
I would work out for a frickin month and gain 0.5lbs whereas my husband pretty much just needs to burp and he’s lost 5lbs!!!!
Men are also very poopie species!!! I dunno how they poop so many times a day!!!����♀️����♀️����♀️like what the heck!!!! So the scale is always going down for them!!!
Any time I weigh myself, as long as I’m not over approximately five pounds more than in the morning, I don’t worry about it, because it’s food and/or water weight. By morning, I’m back to where I was the morning before or even lower. I go more by what my physique looks like than what the scale says, and is how I reassure myself that I haven’t gained back any fat.
Simple trics to lose weight: 1. Walk half an hour a day. 2. When you serve yourself, put the salade on your plate first and of you grab a second plate fill it with salade and the third time grab the other food.
thank you for educating me and thousand of other people!:) feeling much more rational already haha
#SortingHatSquad Woo, period talk! But can we acknowledge that it is often a period ten days? Literally 1/3rd of the month….3 days PMSing and wanting to eat more/having crazy cravings and then 5-7 days of feeling awful/cramping/and bleeding. Yes, every woman has a different cycle, but for me, it often equates to a full third of the month. I loved the idea of comparing period week weight to next month’s period week weight though, very mentally helpful!
I KNEW IT!!!! Hormones. Weight does not equal fat loss. #sortinghatsquad
Bodyweight is meaningless unless you’re overweight. If you’re normal weight, measure your waist circumference (for men) and calculate your body fat percentage using the Navy method. For women there are a few more measurements.
But weight doesn’t even change the outcome according to that method.
I don’t even own a scale.
Discovered you just now. Wished I found your blog wayyyy earlier because this is just what I needed #letsgooo. #sortinghatsquaad
Oh man, this explain so much so well. Thanks for the reminder to be logical!
#sortinghatsquad
Man loses weight easier than women because the female body is different from the man.
If I have one takeaway from this video, it would be to treat myself like I would treat my best friend… Thanks!
Men DON’T lose weight easier than women. Men have more muscle generally speaking. That means it takes more calories to maintain normal size. If he is in a calorie deficit he will be hungry same as a woman.
The men in the study lost more weight ONLY because they were in more of a caloric deficit. ( It’s the only way to lose weight.Because generally speaking men are taller/ Bigger than women. Men are generally bigger and eating the same amount of food as the generally smaller women.
Women carry more fat than men. A woman who is completely shredded ripped will only be at about 13-15% body fat. Where as a male would be able to get down to 5% range. ( A range women can’t physically get to).
It’s NOT easier for men to be in a caloric deficit than women!!! It’s a common misunderstanding.
A man and woman of same age same height same weight and body fat and muscle content would require roughly the same calories to maintain. (Within a small amount of calories )
it’s not what you what you look up on Google where it say women need 1200 calories and men need 1700. That is an average based on average man vs average woman to maintain average size. Where the average Man is 7″ taller than the average Woman he will obviously require more food.
Results will vary more based on individual metabolism…which can be changed based on eating habits.
Thank you for a video, one of the best I have ever watched about scale and weighting yourself. Perfect timing for me to watch it as well, you rock!
I ate some sushi yesterday (a high approx. 1200 cal of my 1700cal for that day), I gained 3.2 lbs on the scale. Damn that salt.
Susan, how long did it take for you to get used to eating just 3 meals a day. Are you hungry in between meals I have such a hard time between lunch and dinner and I don’t want to stuff myself or overeat at mealtime just to make it through. Will my body finally be able to do this?
Yes, I move the scale and try again. The week before my cycle sucks. #sortinghatsquad
Thank god this video exists. My boyfriend has lost 12 lbs and I have gained 4+ lbs. He eats, drinks, and walks more than I do, but has lost more. It started to piss me off so i decided to scroll through your videos and figure out what to do. I want to lose fat, but can never seem to hold myself accountable. Going to start a tracker. I’ll keep you updated. Much love <3 thank you
I definitely need to start weighing myself more. #sortinghatsquad
Lmaooo omg you’re so funny!! Also great video and information. #sortinghatsquad
I just hate the fact that my husband can lose weight faster than me. My husband can take a dump and lose ten pounds while I suffer through weeks of living on greens, proteins and fats-yes I’m on keto. Its taken me a long time to drop the weight I want to lose (my goal is to lose 40 lbs by my 59th birthday). When I was in college, I could lose 5-10 in a weekend but not anymore. Menopause is not your friend when it comes to weight loss.
