HAVE A BALL:
Replace your desk chair with a fitness ball. This will improve your posture and balance while working your core muscles. I did this months ago! I’ve noticed that I sit up straight and my core muscles are stronger than ever!
You can also use this ball for some fun workouts! I hate ab workouts, but I’ve found that it’s much easier when using a fitness ball. Just Google “Fitness ball workout” and find some results that look fun and apply to you!
TAKE A HIKE:Stop being lazy and stop using elevators! Instead, climb the stairs and sneak in a good workout.
In a study published in the European Heart Journal, 69 hospital employees used the stairs exclusively for 12 weeks. Here are the ways they benefited, on average:
Lung capacity: up 8.6 percent
Body fat: down 1.7 percent
Waist circumference: down 1.8 percent
Diastolic blood pressure: down 2.3 percent
LDL (bad) cholesterol: down 3.9 percent
TURN PREP TIME INTO A DANCE PARTY:
Whether you’re getting ready for work or painting on a pretty face for a night out, put on some tunes and dance your ass off! Who says you can’t dance alone? I do it ALL THE TIME! There’s hardly ever a time I don’t have music playing at my house. Dancing burns some serious calories, so why not shake it?
DON’T DRINK YOUR CALORIES:Drinking high calorie beverages is probably one of the worst things you can do. It’s a quick and easy way to pack on the pounds without even realizing how many calories you’re piling up.
Black coffee and most unsweetened teas both have 0 calories. Another 0 calorie beverage is WATER, the most thirst quenching beverage you can find.
LADIES AND LADYBOYS… THROW ON YOUR LOUBOUTINS:
Throw on your favorite pair of heels and get your housework done in style! Vacuuming in heels will work the muscles from your booty to the floor. Hell, while you’re at it, turn up the music and dance! Work it all at once! ONE RULE: 4 inches or higher! I’m not playing, NO ITTY BITTY KITTY HEELS! If you’re gonna wear heels, REACH FOR THE STARS!
