…include strength training in your routine. The more weight training Neal does, the more her metabolism speeds up and burns calories.
“When you increase your muscle mass, you boost your resting metabolism — and that makes your body burn more calories,” says Katie Heimburger, an exercise psychologist based out of Atlanta.
Neal does acknowledge that her metabolism is not the same due to her age. She said, “I believe that as you get older, you need to do more weight training.” Being a celebrity doesn’t stop aging and her body has the same issues that anyone who gets older would have. Neal just remains more dedicated to actively shortening that gap in metabolism caused by age.
Her advice? “Everything is attainable, you just have to be ready to work.”
