there are just 2 simple habits you may want to adopt.

1. Daily exercise keeps your body's fat burners functioning long after your workout. Work your heart and lungs - walking, running, or riding your bike! Grab a jump rope and see how long you can go! Try a new sport - or two - and enjoy a variety of healthy activities. Turn off the TV after Supper and head out for some family fun instead!

2. Eat more protein early in the day. The early morning protein helps your body burn more calories throughout the day. Give your metabolism a jump-start with a healthy portion of protein to start your day! Drink plenty of water and just say no to those useless calories found in soda and sweets. ( Stick with dark chocolate if you must! ) Try to enjoy more fiber and a little less fat. Drink even more water! 

The weather outside too hot for your liking? Fitness experts find you can burn more calories and get a better overall workout when you exercise in a more comfortable temperature range - like indoors!

Get yourself a few pieces of basic fitness gear and you can sculpt an awesome body shape - without suffering through the Summer heat! Pick up a decent exercise mat and a few hand weights. If you don't already have one - buy a GoFit Weighted Jump Rope
!

If burning more calories in less time And getting a great whole body workout sound good to you - get yourself the Concept2 Model D Indoor Rowing Machine.
