Kickboxing
If you want to burn calories fast, you’ve
got to raise the intensity. Skip the jog,
and instead, attend a kickboxing class.
Within one hour, you can burn 500 or
more calories. And instead of focusing on
just your abs or arms, this all-over body
workout tones everything.
3-Day Cleanse
We’re not advocates of crazy detox
cleanses. (All you’ll do is slow your
metabolism). However, cutting out all
processed foods for three days will flesh
all the bad stuff out and give your
metabolism a little kick. Stick to a diet of
greens, lean protein and low-sugar fruit,
like berries.
Cut Out Sodium
The simple act of cutting out excess
sodium will eliminate water weight (and
that icky bloating around your middle).
Check labels in processed foods, like
frozen dinners and salty snacks. You
shouldn’t be consuming more than 500
mg of sodium daily.
Exercise In The Morning
An easy way to boost your metabolism is
by working out in the morning. Even if
you don’t have time to hit the gym, a 15-
minute routine can do the trick. Create a
routine of equipment-free exercises like
planks, squats, and bicycle crunches.
Swap Out High-Calorie Drinks
You can eliminate hundreds of calories
daily just by cutting out high calorie
drinks. Juices and even milk pack in a lot
of sugar that slows the metabolism,
causing the sugar to be stored as fat
around the stomach. Instead, drink
flavored waters, like Hint Water, that
derives its taste from fruit, not artificial
sweeteners. And don’t forget about high
calorie cocktails! With happy hour season
in full swing, swap your pina colada for a
lower calorie vodka soda.
