The No-Gym Solution to a Faster Metabolism

No gym? No problem! These easy tips will help boost your metabolism and blast fat also. Don’t believe it can be this easy? Just try out these tips for a week or two and see for yourself.

White Noise

Sleep is essential for properly engaging your metabolism and getting to a healthy weight range. Also, studies have proven that when you are tired, you eat more. In fact, one study from the

University of Colorado Boulder found that people got five hours of sleep a night put on almost two pounds in only five days. White noise can help you sleep better and deeper. Try a white noise machine or an app.

Smaller Dishes

Sometimes weight loss is all a mind game. Use small plates, glasses, and bowls to eat. This will help you naturally feel like you are eating more, and can help you reach meal satiety faster. Also, if you stick to serving yourself only one serving on a small plate, you will practically cut your calorie consumption in half, just by tricking yourself.

Convenience Weights

You know how your hand always seems to find the M&M jar when it is out in the open? Use the same strategy but with hand weights instead. Place your weights next to your TV or by your bedside to remind you to do a few reps while watching your favorite show or before you hop into bed at night.

It’s All in the Cold Showers

A warm shower is a delight, but a cold one will actually help you burn more calories naturally. Brown fat, the type of fat in your body that burns calories instead of storing them, are actually activated by cold temperatures. Go ahead and blast a cold shower. You will get an instant wake up call and enjoy shinier hair too!

Kiss Stress Goodbye

Cortisol is nicknamed the stress hormone and can cause you to gain weight, amongst other undesirable side effects. You will not be able to reach your fitness goals if you are struggling with a mountain of stress each week. Learn how to better handle your stress, even if that means switching one of your workouts to a yoga one.

Who says you need a gym to reach your health goals? While a gym is a great place to start, they are not necessary if you are on a budget or crunched for time.
