6 Unusual Ways to Get Rid of Excess Calories With Little Effort
When it comes to losing weight, we all understand that moving more and eating fewer calories is the way to go.
But not all of us want to do exhausting workouts, hop into strict diets, or even choose to limit our calorie intake by a drastic amount.
So, for those who want to try something out that’s a bit different, here are some easy methods that you can use to lose those extra calories.
• Head to the mall and shop.
Shopping can be a pretty exhaustive after only a few hours.
Not only are you on your feet the entire time, but those shopping bags that you end up with are going to weigh you down.
To put this in perspective, a three hour shopping trip equates to one hour on a stationary bike or almost five hundred calories burned.
• Get cleaning!
There are very few people that actually love to clean, but housework can be a great way to keep your body fit.
A thirty minute cleaning session can burn up to ninety calories or a thorough cleaning can burn up to two hundred calories, depending on how large your home is.
• Choose to belt out a song or two.
Singing actually involves a lot of muscle groups and it can be a great workout if you are able to sing for an hour or more.
It can get rid of up to one hundred calories for one hour of singing.
This is better than doing fifteen minutes of intensive pushups.
• Make sure you get your beauty rest.
Not only does sleeping reduce stress and therefore your weight, but sleeping naked can increase your metabolic activity levels and the amount of brown fat cells that you have.
Brown fat cells are the good kind of fat that you want.
• Laugh up a storm.
Whenever you can, let out a gut-wrenching laughter and keep it going.
Laughing involves your entire body and it can burn up to 50 calories for ten to fifteen minutes of laughing.
Plus, it increases your mood and boosts your emotions.
• Donate blood.
Yes, you read that right. You can burn up to 650 calories per one pint of donated blood.
This is similar to a one-hour swim session where you are going non-stop.
Other than the above, try kissing for an hour to lose sixty calories or watch a horror movie to get your adrenaline pumping.
The main thing to keep in mind here is that you aren’t replacing the calories that you are burning with excess food.
For instance, if you are out shopping or out donating blood, don’t go and get a meal or ice cream afterward!
