The simple workout you're not doing could be the secret to finally peeling those pounds. Walking burns about four calories a minute, and science says they add up to take weight off and keep it off.
Walkers have not only less overall flab than couch sitters but less around their bellies as well. "Plus, little tweaks can make any walk melt more calories and firm more muscle fibers".
Why walking is the number-one way to ward off job blob: Burning some 50 extra calories a day, the equivalent of a steady 15-minute stroll, can help determine whether or not you gain weight, experts say. Bonus: Unlike steamier exercise, power walking won't give you the post-workout munchies.
Pick a lunch spot that's about an eight-minute walk away, call in your order, and head out. "Go at a pace of at least three miles an hour, and make a game out of not stopping,".
Grab your lunch and go. Do this most weekdays to rack up 45 minutes to an hour of exercise without even trying.
For a mini butt-firming boost, squeeze your glutes while you walk "as if you're holding a diamond necklace between your cheeks."
