low Metabolism

If you're putting on weight while eating the same kinds of food you've eaten for decades, your metabolism may be slowing down. Muscle burns more calories than fat tissue, but as you get older, you may be less active and your calorie-burning muscle turns into fat, leading to the metabolic slowdown. This is also one reason why women generally have slower metabolisms than man -- genetically they have less muscle. Eating too few calories can also cause a drop in your metabolic rate, as much as 30 percent,

Fast Metabolism

If you're blessed with a fast metabolism, your friends may tell you how jealous they are that you can eat whatever you want and not gain weight. Genetics may be the major player in your fast metabolism. If you're a muscular man, you may have an innate higher metabolism, but your higher calorie burning may also be due to hard work. Working out and building muscle pays off when it comes to your metabolic rate, which is why athletes and bodybuilders get to eat large quantities of food.
