<p>In general, men can lose fat faster than women because they have more muscle mass than women. The more muscle mass one has the higher the metabolism because muscle requires more calories to be maintain by the body than fat. Rather than saying, &#8220;That&#8217;s not fair,&#8221; however, it&#8217;s better to focus on <a href="http://www.fatmatters.com/what-should-i-weigh/">what one has control over</a>. A person can increase their muscle mass by being more active and doing specific exercises (such as weight resistance exercises) that will<a href="http://www.fatmatters.com/muscle-vs-fat/"> increase muscle mass</a> and, therefore, metabolism. When a person has more muscle,  they can <a href="http://www.fatmatters.com/dietary-nutrition-made-easy/">eat more without gaining fat</a> and weight can be lost faster.</p>
<p>Instead of just asking why men <a href="http://www.fatmatters.com/fat-burning/">lose weight faster</a> than women it makes more sense to ask what you can do to start burning more fat.  It&#8217;s a more productive question.</p>
