One of the most underrated fat loss tools, which is often overlooked, is walking. Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) is the energy expended for everything we do that is not sleeping, or sports like movement. Any physical activity increase your metabolic rate. The cumulative impact over a week, month and beyond can have a significant positive outcome on the ability to burn more calories. We advise our clients to increase their walking activity wherever possible. Walking the dog, going for a walk listening to a podcast, simply fidgeting, walking upstairs to the bathroom as opposed to downstairs, getting off the tube a station earlier, cutting the grass and so on. Even better and more challenging as demonstrated in the image attached is by adding additional weight, via a weighted vest. Consider what movement you are currently doing on a weekly basis and where you can slowly introduce more.
