09.01.2022 ***10 Easy Ways to Burn More Fat*** In the same trend of weight loss education, we're now talking about NEAT or Nonexercise Activity Thermogenesis. NEAT is the cumulative energy expended throughout daily life such as maintaining your posture, breathing, creating heat etc. So basically the stuff that you don't think about at all. Obviously I encourage people to exercise regularly whether it be cardio, weights etc but most individuals get very little formal exercise and those t...hat do have a fairly negligible effect on their weight loss. An article published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science all the way back in the late 90's showed that a group of non-obese individuals who began to overeat, burned 2/3's of their extra calories through NEAT. These results suggest that as humans overeat, activation of NEAT burns excess energy to preserve leanness and that failure to activate NEAT may result in ready fat gain. So then, how the hell do we activate our NEAT more right??? Below are 10 easy ways to increase your daily NEAT and start burning away the fat. 1. Walking: Just do it more! 2. Cook: Not only are we actively moving around constantly, the heat from stoves and ovens causes our bodies to burn more energy to stay cool. 3. TV: Have a stretching routine you can do in front of the TV. We all spend a lot of time there so use it wisely and reduce your pains at the same time. 4. Morning Routine: As soon as you get out of bed do some quick movements to get your body heating itself up. Star Jumps, push-ups, lunges etc. Just enough to be feeling a little hot. 5. Afternoon Routine: Exactly the same as above but when you get home from work. 6. Your Car: You can do super simple things like contracting muscles while driving. Try out doing some bum squeezes every time you're in the car. Not only will you burn more energy, you'll get some mad bunz too! 7. Ditch the Car: Either walk or bike to work. Or catch the bus as it generally makes you walk further than if you were in a car. 8. Work: Same thing as in the car, try doing bum squeezes or get up and do some star jumps. You could even lunge walk whenever you move somewhere in your office. 9. Hobbies: Active hobbies are the best cause they don't feel like work. Sports, rock climbing, bush walks, swimming etc. 10. Cleaning: Hanging out the washing, vacuuming, mopping, dusting, cleaning the dishes. Whatever it is it will activate your NEAT for sure. Get hot and enjoy!

06.01.2022 Don't always listen to the scales. Measuring your waist and hip girths are much more effective ways to track your progress.

06.01.2022 ***Your Metabolism: What the Hell is it?*** PART 2/4 "...So now that we have that sorted, let’s look at some of the things that actually influence basal metabolic rate. As it happens, metabolic rate is something of a moving target, and there are a host of things that cause it to move. The major determinants of this are total mass (lean body mass affecting BMR more than fat mass), gender, and age. On the whole men burn slightly more than women, those with higher lean body mass... or total mass tend to burn more than those with less, and as you age you tend to burn a little less as well. There are some other variables that are not terribly well understood thus far, but for the most part we can use these variables to come pretty close to predicting what a person’s basal metabolic rate will be. Equations and handy calculators can be found all over the internet and you can try them out to see how they predict your BMR. What about inter-individual variations? Is it true that some have a faster or slower metabolism? The answer is a firm yes but it doesn’t matter. Without diving too much into figures, it is estimated that roughly half of the population vary in metabolic rate by no more than about 200 calories/day. Read that again - 200 calories/day. There do exist outliers, and for some it’s estimated that the variance can be as much as 3-fold higher, but statistically speaking most will fall into this very small variance of only about 200 calories/day. To summarise basal metabolic rate describes how many calories we burn to keep our critical systems functioning, and though there are inherent variances due to mass/age/gender, statistically speaking most fall within a fairly narrow range. So is that the final word? Absolutely not! There are yet more factors that influence total daily energy spend; one in particular may hold the key to what we typically believe to be a fast or slow metabolism. We’ll get into that in the next part of this article!" To be continued...

If you have any contentions or evidence to the contrary of anything that I say, please keep this in mind. ...Continue reading

03.01.2022 ***Your Metabolism: What the Hell is it?*** Part 3/4 So we’ve briefly covered the concept of metabolic rate (often referred to as metabolism), but as alluded to at the end of part 2 there it is only one of the factors that influence your total daily energy spend. There are four factors in total, which vary considerably based on a number of factors; those factors are:...Continue reading
