Ready to Supercharge Your Metabolism?
Weight loss is soooo much easier when
your metabolism is really kickin'! And,
weight loss is soooo difficult when your
metabolism is draggin'!
Unfortunately, the basal metabolic rate
(metabolism) of most adults is far
slower than it should be to maintain a
normal body weight. When your metabolism
is slow, it affects you in several ways:
dd>
1. You fatigue easily and often feel
"sluggish".
-
2. You rarely feel truly energetic.
-
3. You gain fat easily.
-
4. Losing fat is very difficult.
-
5. You are more prone to depression.
-
6. Your mental acuity is diminished.
But, there is good news! You CAN change
this. It may take a while but you CAN
do it. You CAN turn your body into an
energized, 24-hour fat burning machine!
Last year, I launched the "Metabolism
Challenge" for my subscribers. It's a friendly,
supportive competition to spend a month
concentrating on beginning to get your
metabolism revved-up.
Here's what you have to do to participate
and start getting your metabolism in shape:
-
1. do some type of aerobic exercise six
to seven days per week during "Metabolism
Month." This can be walking, jogging,
cycling, swimming, aerobic dance, etc. If
you have not been exercising, start with
just a few minutes per day and gradually
increase your time. If you have been
exercising, set a goal of doing 30 to
60 minutes per session. Never increase
your exercise time in large increments.
You should always progress slowly.
.
-
2. Incorporate "intervals" into your aerobic
exercise. Intervals are great for your
metabolism and they help time to
pass faster while you're exercising. Those
slow periods always seem so short. See my
archived article on intervals..

3. Weight train three days per week. Toned
muscles send your metabolism through the
roof! Don't miss out on this.

-
4. Create activity in your lifestyle.
Just think about how often during the day
you have the choice of doing it the easy way
or the way that requires some exertion on
your part. Walk rather than ride whenever
possible. Do you ride or push to cut your
lawn? Raking leaves is great exercise. What
a feeling of accomplishment to kill two
birds with one stone - exercise and get some
chores done. You get the idea - make your
days active..
