An easier and more attainable strategy to lose weight would be to make your goal 500 calories a day.

This can be done with a combination of calories reduction and exercise.

Keep scrolling to find some workouts you can do at home to help burn off those calories.

Some will say they burn 1000 calories but we all know 1 round won't do that.

Do These 3 Things To Boost Your Fat Burning Potential

By adding even one metabolism-boosting exercise into your daily routine, you can burn more calories even after exercise so you can lose weight faster.

Note: If you just started exercising wait a few weeks before you add any of these.

1. Strength Training

Any type of strength training will help to permanently boost your metabolism.

This is because muscles burn more calories while at rest than fat or anything else in your body, so by building up your muscles so that you have more of them, your body will begin burning more calories throughout the day without you having to do any extra work.

You can use dumbbells, kettlebells, or other workout equipment if you want, but there are also a number of strength training exercises that use your body weight.

2. Interval Training

You can do interval training with nearly any type of aerobics or cardio exercise.

Interval training helps you burn more calories than cardio exercise (walking or running) alone because most cardio exercises require doing them for a long period of time before you’re able to burn a decent number of calories.

However, through interval training, you can burn more calories in less time and get a metabolism boost afterward.

Interval training essentially involves pushing yourself as hard as you can for short bursts of time, then taking a period of rest in between where you’re still moving, but not pushing yourself.

For example, if you are running for exercise, you might sprint as hard and fast as you can for 10 seconds, walk for 1 minute, and repeat that five times.

3. Burpees

This is an exercise that combines strength training and cardio and is one of the best exercises to boost metabolism.

It not only gets your heart rate going because it is a high-intensity exercise, but it also works out all of your major muscle groups.

That means you’ll get a temporary boost in metabolism from the cardio and a permanent boost from working your muscles.

80% Of Your Weight Loss Is Based On What You Eat

Saying you did a 1000-calorie workout might look good on social media but it won't give you body-changing results if you are still eating junk.

You must have the proper nutrition to get maximum results.

We've all heard it...

“Abs are made in the kitchen”

It's been proven over and over again.

I know it, you know it but it's easier said than done.

If you're like me your biggest hurdle is knowing what to eat and when.

That's why drinking a protein shake and skipping the meal prep is a win, win.

But remember drinking a shake is only helpful if you use quality protein because if you drink something with fillers and toxins you may do more harm than good.

The highest quality and best-tasting whey protein shakes I've found are the IsaLean Shakes by Isagenix.
