This month on PULSE Mornings, Health & Fitness Expert Aeryon Ashlie gave us 5 Tips to boost your metabolism.

Aeryon says: “A lot of the time when we’re trying to reach a certain weight loss fitness goal, we focus more on ‘restricting ourselves’ from food and ‘over-exercising’ instead of looking at how to boost our metabolism.  If your body is working more effectively and efficiently, that’s going to bring you closer to the results that you want.”

1. Eat Protein With Every Meal
It can increase your metabolic rate by 15-30%

2. Drink Cold Water
This will increase your resting metabolism by 10-30% in an hour

3. High Intensity Training
Increases your Metabolic Rate (even after you work out) for hours

4. Lift Heavy Things
Higher muscle content in your body = the higher your metabolism as
Muscle is more metabolically active than fat.

5. Stand More
These days, sitting is now called “the new smoking”.
It can simply burn an extra 178 calories in the afternoon.
