Here’s some easy tips and ways how you can burn calories throughout your day.
Walk
Seriously one of the easiest things to do. Here’s sneaky ways to work it in :
· Walk don’t drive – If the weather is nice walk to work, the store, or to eat?
· Take your pet on a walk – Stroll around the neighborhood, on the trails, or at a nearby park.
· Park further away – Suck it up - you don’t need that space right in front of the door.
They have carts to push your stuff if you bought too much.
· Walk during lunch – During your lunch break go for a walk!
A walk gets you out in the outdoors, clears your mind, and doesn’t take long.
Does it really take you all lunch break to eat?
· Take the stairs – Burn a couple calories and avoid the awkward silence or bad music in the elevator.
Did you know?
· Walking a mile burns as many calories as running a mile.
The amount of work is the same, it just takes longer to walk.
· Walking a mile burns more fat than running a mile.
A greater percentage of calories are burned from fat at lower intensity levels.

Dance
Get your groove on. Turn on some music and dance to your favorite songs!
Clean
You continuously move when you are doing chores. So scrub that house down, do some laundry, and burn some calories. This is a two-for-one deal – clean house and smokin’ body.
Shop
You heard correctly. Now there is even one more reason to shop.
Yoga / Pilates
Let me put this in my own words – you do stretches on the floor for about an hour and you get lean muscles, get skinny, feel more relaxed, more flexible, and feel better. There are beginner classes everywhere at very reasonable prices or sometimes even for free!
Get Your Groove On
Yep, it's true. You burn 3 times more calories having sex than if you were just sitting on the couch.
Go improve your love life.

Work Out Tip : Play Music
Use a mp3 player or play your favorite upbeat music when you work out.
The beat pumps you up, pushes you to work harder, and keeps you going through those challenging moments!
