I've never been one who likes to exercise. I like to go to the gym sometimes, but during the summer when I'm working I don't have time to go to the gym. So, I'm always looking for ways to burn more calories! Here are some examples of how:
- Fidgeting. Any movement burns calories!
- Chose to stand instead of sit if you have the chance
- I work a desk job so during work I try to get up and walk around to burn more.
- I have an app on my phone called Striiv and it counts my steps and how many calories I burn and uploads it right to MyFitnessPal.
- Do small exercises. Like do 5 squats every time you go to the bathroom. Or do crunches during commercial breaks while you're watching TV.
- Walk places or ride a bike instead of driving/taking public transit.
- Don't take the elevator.
- Park at the end of parking lots.
- Clean! Take time to clean every day and you'll end up organized and skinny.
Remember that any workout is better than no workout! Go for a jog, even if it's just for 10 minutes. Ten minutes is better than 0 minutes! Or even just go for a walk during your lunch break or after dinner. Every little step counts!
I like the cleaning tip. Cleaning is hard for me cause I have ptsd and I feel like if things are messy people "can't get me" um if that makes sence? But I need to work on cleaning and keeping things clean if I ever want to have my kids back.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I have a hard time just getting motivated to clean because the more mess, the more depressed I am. I usually end up cleaning when I'm really angry and it helps me to release that.
