The weather in the Abacos with the exception of local patterns like the squall shown above, is pretty much the same as south Florida. The temperature is too. When it's 50 in February in Ft. Lauderdale, it will be close to that in the Abacos. Hurricanes hit the Abacos as often as they hit Florida.
Body Fat Percentage-The lower an individual's body fat percentage, the higher their BMR. This is one reason why men typically have a BMR that is 10-15% higher than that of women. Diet-Starvation diets typically reduce an individual's BMR by as much as 30%.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR), also called the resting metabolic rate, is the amount of energy needed to support the body's most basic functions when at rest in a neutral, or non-stressful, environment. The BMR is the number of calories a specific human needs per day to stay alive. BMR can be responsible for 70% of the calories burned per day.
