Keep Moving, Burn Calories

Is there a magic word or a phrase to help you lose weight and burn calories? Yes, there is - keep moving.

"The more time spent exercising and the more vigorous the exercise, the more calories will be burned,” said Dr. Christopher Wharton, a certified personal trainer and researcher with the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University.

You can always choose from a variety of exercises to start burning calories immediately. The gym is a good place to do this. Do a 30-minute jog or participate in a 40-minute low-impact aerobics class. Twenty-six minutes of circuit training is another option. Show some leg power and walk fast for 52 minutes. Hog the ski machine for 22 minutes or row vigorously on the machine for 25 minutes. Using the exercise bike for 20 minutes is also one way to reduce calories.

Burning calories doesn’t mean that you have to do it on your own. There are a lot of things you can do with your partner or friends. Book a badminton court for 45 minutes and persuade a friend to have a game with you. Have a laugh with your partner and learn ballroom dancing for an hour and 10 minutes or get together with friends and go ice skating for 40 minutes. Even at night you can burn calories by clubbing with your friends and dancing for at least 35 minutes.

Your home can also be the source of a calorie-burning routine. Rearrange your bedroom and lug heavy furniture around for just 35 minutes. Scrape off that wallpaper you’ve always hated for 45 minutes and spruce up your front room and paint the walls for 45 minutes. Now it’s time to scrub your kitchen floor for 40 minutes and tidy up your garden for 42 minutes.

There are many ways to burn calories on a daily basis. You don’t have to do these exercises and chores all at once. Do one everyday and you’re on your way to a slim and healthy body. Zyroxin can also help you burn calories by speeding up your metabolism safely and effectively without the jittery side effects associated with ephedrine-based diet supplements. Zyroxin helps maximize weight loss through its unique thermogenic or fat-burning mechanism. Check out www.zyroxin.com to burn fat while at rest, work or play.
