How Weight, Muscle, Exercise and Fat Loss Relates?

A popular joke in my student days was that Mangosothu Buthelezi, the then prĂ©sident of Inkatha, only managed to use one percent of his brain during a lifetime, therefore the much more than expected asking price for his almost new organ at an after death parts auction. This couldn’t have been closer to the truth at scientific research level. Not referring to the price of Gatsha’s organ, but the practically brand new brains of so many of us dying in old age. We didn't know Zuma then, he could have beaten Gatsha's hammer price hands down.

Brain is the most effective way to waste energy and glucose if you want to avoid it getting stored in our love handles as fat. Muscle is a poor second best, but fortunately we have masses of it. It therefore can and still is effectively used as tool number one in weight loss strategies. The rest of the organs are far behind these two champions in energy expenditure if we have to limit our tinkering from demand side of the equation. 
We have no behind display access to the thermostat without having to resort to drugs like eltroxin. To succumb to that is a slippery slope no self respecting doctor should attempt, unless you do have hypothyroidism to start with. 
If we have to remember the opening statement that even Albert Einstein is running at less than idling speed, then hoping to lose weight the brain route from demand side is a lost battle for most of us.  A good tool, but beyond reach for all except Hawkins, for totally unrelated reason. He lost because of denervation. For most of us the only route is to build muscle with static exercise and maintain it.
It is no use trying the aerobic way as I have mentioned in my earlier blog. You need a comrade’s marathon a week to achieve that, and a monitor to check when proteins start getting added to the fuel mix. No use trying by going on diet and denying yourself food only to die of colonic or prostate cancer because you lack selenium or an essential micro nutrient that was not yet discovered in supplements you are presently taking. You need to eat every category of whole and natural non processed foods. 
Your only survival instinct out of this obesity/cancer/fast food nightmare is two fold.

Eat organic food for life or as long as possible. Natural and whole food. Eat it as the Lord gave it to you from the Garden of Eden including the meat. Avoid fast foods like a leper. Eat your vegetables raw or steam if disease has to be avoided. That's to retain the nutrients in the veggies or drink the drained water too. Meat should be wild, turkey, fish, free grassed beef and specifically free running chicken (egg to fully grown chicken in weeks is not an alternative) but you have to pass this one over a flame minimum, lest your masseter traps you in an evolutionary grip. Not many of us will be impressed with you taking us back to Astrolopicas Africana era.

Exercise has to be anaerobic (that is push yourself to the extreme) with static muscle build up and breaks in between. Repeat as many cycles as possible. The weight losing goal is not in how many calories the treadmill reads out before you hit the shower, but how much muscle you build up so as to lose fat while you are sleeping that evening, passively, 24 hours a day for life. 
Increase basal metabolic rate in summary, without having to meet the brains requirement to get there.  

If  biochemistry and physiology of health are the elements of every mix, then results are assured
