Olympic-caliber athletes may be able to increase their metabolic rate by engaging in intense training sessions that build muscle mass, as muscle burns more calories at rest than fat. Additionally, they may follow a specific nutrition plan to support their training and recovery needs, leading to a higher metabolic rate. Finally, athletes often have lower body fat percentages compared to the general population, which can also contribute to a higher metabolic rate.
