Modifying certain habits in the office can make you lose size and break the sedentary lifestyle

 

The arch-repeated weight loss formula is to combine a healthy and balanced diet with an active lifestyle that includes physical exercise. But what happens when we spend eight hours or more sitting in a chair?

Sedentary lifestyle is one of the main causes of overweight in Western society. In fact, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), sedentary lifestyle is among the four factors with the highest risk of death.

If we look closer, Spain is the fourth country in Europe with the highest po[CENSORED]tion rate that does not exercise, according to the European Heart Network. And in addition to work, leisure activities, such as watching TV or tablet, also involve a passive state.

 

Sedentary lifestyle can cause not only overweight or obesity; also, heart problems, back pain, vision problems, diabetes ...

How can I lose weight while working?

Increase your NEAT
Accelerating metabolism helps to burn calories and, therefore, lose weight. Doing sports is a great way to get it, but also increasing the basal metabolism, that is, consuming calories when we are at rest.

Through the NEAT (Non-Exercice Activity Thermogenesis) we can increase the basal metabolism. Although it sounds very technical, it refers to those daily activities that we do and that affect the amount of calories we burn. Climbing stairs instead of taking the elevator or replacing the subway or bus with the bicycle or fast walking are activities that help increase the NEAT, and therefore burn calories.

 

Work standing
The nutritionist Miquel Gironès, one of the most po[CENSORED]r in social networks that accumulates thousands of followers in social networks, ensures that when you stand for several hours (either working or for any other circumstance), your metabolism is activated. Your body is working harder and that is why it is easier for you to lose fat. Try to do it for a few hours.

Lift your computer or phone if you are in the office and work several hours standing. That will make your body working even if you don't leave the environment of your work life. You will also be getting tired and that will make you sleep better at night. And is that resting seven or eight hours in a row and quality a day is essential to lose weight.

Smart wristbands

 

Thanks to the so-called smart bracelets (and also with a simple mobile phone) you can get the device to notify you every hour and "force" you to move. Taking 100 steps at least every 60 minutes prevents sedentary lifestyle. Moving is the most important thing you can do during the day and if you manage to take 15,000 steps a day you can even lose weight or lose weight.

Eat fat burning foods
Food plays a key role in losing weight, but it is not necessary to starve or eat salads all day. Some natural foods help us to satiate ourselves more and speed up the metabolism, so we burn fat more easily.

What are these foods? Broccoli, eggs, lean meat, nuts, quinoa, tomato, Greek yogurt, fish with omega 3 ... Also liquids such as coffee or water with lemon, are excellent natural and healthy fat burning foods.

In this sense, it is better to take a tupper to eat at work with any of these options. In this way we avoid exceeding the calories we eat if we go to a restaurant and it helps us choose a more balanced and healthy menu.

Exchange soda and alcohol for water at meals

 

Do you eat with sugary soda or alcohol? If you do not choose the "zero" range of the first or choose well what alcoholic beverages you have to drink you will be adding too many calories to your diet (totally unnecessary).

That will contribute to the most important of all: to lose weight in a healthy and healthy way and not to do so in such a radical way that in a short time you gain much more weight than you have lost. It is what is known as the dreaded "rebound effect".
