Evening Workout

As the Nutrition Challenge is under way I wanted to share a little secret on how I boost my metabolism before bedtime each night. If you read any form of media, I am sure that you have read some where that one's metabolism decreases as night approaches. Here are some helpful tips to increase your night time metabolism.


1.) Avoid any caloric intake after 7pm

• Studies have shown that food intake before bed has no where to go besides storage, meaning it will be stored as fat. What an easy way to control fat!

2.) Conduct a quick mini workout before the shower or bed

• Crunches 3x25
• Helps to eliminate lower abdominal fat
• Push ups 3x15
• Helps to eliminate the flapping under arm hang
• Side leg raises 3x25
• Helps to eliminate the pooling of fat on your back side

3.) Take the time to relax

• When you are stressed your body releases what is called cortisol. Cortisol is a hormone that assists in the utilization of blood sugar (glucose) and fat for energy (metabolism). However, too much cortisol results in the slowing of your metabolism

4.) Get a good nights sleep!
