You don't have to go to the gym, fitness center, or even outside your house to burn calories. As a matter of fact, you can burn all the calories you want right from the comfort of your home easily by making little effort.
With that being said, here are 5 surprisingly simple ways you can burn calories from home.
1. Get Active as Soon as You Wake Up.
A simple way to get your body ready for the day is to do a small amount of exercise right after you wake up.
Yes, you need to wake up, and this could be lunges, squats, push-ups, or even walking in place. Just take 10 minutes to get moving!
This will surely burn a lot of calories, and you will feel fresh throughout the day. This will also maintain the blood flow in your body, leading to a natural glow on your skin and making you attractive.
2. Raise Your Heart Rate
Raising your heart rate several times throughout the day is a great way to burn 200-400 calories very easily.
The number of calories you will burn will, of course, depend on the type of activity you are going to do.
A simple way to raise your heart rate is to jogging in place for 30 seconds. Take a 60-second break and then do it again.
Repeat this interval 6-7 times.
Sounds simple, but it ain't easy at all, especially for healthy guys.
3. Do Interval Training During Commercial Breaks
When you are looking to burn maximum calories in minimum time, interval training is the way to go.
Next time you're watching your favorite TV show, plan on doing intervals during every commercial break. This is the best method to use your free time and make your calories burn at a higher rate.
Intervals are short and intense bursts of exercise.
Great examples would be running on the treadmill as fast as you can during the commercial break or doing as many push-ups or maybe pull-ups if you have the equipment, but the first two you can.
Trust us; you will get a killer workout by doing interval training during commercial breaks.
4. Keep Your Home Cool
Yes, studies have shown that keeping your home cool can significantly increase the number of calories you burn throughout the day.
As a matter of fact, just being in a cool environment can help you burn up to 40% more fat. Doesn't that sound amazing!
5. Sit On The Floor While Watching TV
Yes, this may completely sound crazy, but it actually works...
When you sit on the floor, your body is forced to use more muscles to keep you in an upright position.
You will also use more muscles when you stand up because it's simple when you sit lower, more gravity will pull you, and your muscles need to work out.
The simple act of recruiting more muscles will lead to you burning more and more calories throughout the day.
Though these 5 tactics sound super simple, they are also extremely effective for anyone who follows them regularly.
Give them a try and let everyone feel motivated that anything is possible if one wants to. And do enough effort and hard work.
