Whether you work out regularly, occasionally, or not at all, the movement you accumulate throughout your day matters.
That everyday movement has a name: NEAT โ Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis.
Your workout is ONE hour-ish. What you do with the other 23 matters MORE than you think. ๐
You can crush your workoutโฆ and then barely move for the rest of the day.
That everyday movement has a name: NEAT โ Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis.
Basically, itโs all the movement you do that isnโt your workout โ walking around the house, taking the stairs, cleaning, gardening, shopping, standing, pacing while you're on the phoneโฆ it ALL counts.
And the difference in daily calorie burn between someone who moves a lot and someone who doesnโt can be surprisingly significant.
So if youโre training consistently but feel like your progress has stalled, don't automatically assume you need another workout.
You might just need to MOVE MORE.

And this goes WAY beyond burning calories.
Daily movement supports your metabolic health, blood sugar, cardiovascular health, mobility, mood and healthy aging.
Iโve said this for years:
Your workout is important โ but so is what you do when youโre NOT working out.
Train your body.
Then USE your body. ๐ชโค๏ธ
Because the ultimate goal isn't just to look betterโฆ
Itโs to build a body that lets you LIVE better.
Save this one โ and send it to that friend who thinks their one-hour workout gives them permission to sit for the other 23. ๐
