I often see certain memes going around on social media, sharing things about what women want and desire. Some say shoes; some say diamonds. But the one I have found to be the truest is where it says that the dream is to eat whatever you want without gaining any weight! It certainly made me laugh as it is very true; that would be the dream!
While we can’t avoid certain calories, we can trick our body a little bit into burning more calories with less effort. All you have to do is give your metabolism a boost! As we get older, it does naturally slow down. But there are things that you can do to keep it ticking over and working efficiently. So if you struggle to lose weight, then here are some simple ways to give your metabolism a boost. I hope they help!
Workout in Intervals
If you want to take your weight loss up a notch, then using interval training is a surefire way to do just that. It can all be very well running on a treadmill for thirty minutes, and it's great if you’re looking to get a personal best for a 5K race, for instance. But for weight loss, it will only keep it steady. To mix things up and give your metabolism and weight loss a boost, then train in intervals. Have thirty seconds of intense running, followed by a minute of jogging. Keep repeating until you’ve had enough. The same can go for weight training or other cardio.
Consider a Supplement
If you’re eating well most of the time but not losing weight, then it might be a chance to take a supplement to help you on your way. One popular choice is the brand Leptigen, as they are reported to help give your metabolism a boost. But can you really lose weight with Leptigen? The proof is in the pudding, so to speak. Talk with your doctor, and they could advise you on the best route to go down and what supplement would be suitable for you.
Build Up Muscle
A lot of women can be afraid of bulking up when they go to the gym. But did you know that the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn just sat still? I’m not suggesting that you become a bodybuilder or anything, but that is an easy way to burn more calories, right? So if you are doing more cardio than weight training at the moment, switch it up. Not only will you build up your strength, but you’ll be able to look more lean and toned.
Eat Enough Calories
When we want to lose weight, we often cut the calories in our diet to a deficient number. This makes our body think that times are lean and will adjust accordingly, slowing your metabolism and holding onto the fat in your body. So make sure you’re eating enough calories to cover your resting metabolic rate (the calories you need to do the day to day things each day). Then your body won’t think it needs to go into starvation mode.
