Seven ways to burn fat, jump-start fitness and get pumped!

1. Jump rope 3x per week for 5-10 minutes. (p.s. jumping rope is the #2 calorie burning activity!)

2. Well, what is the #1 calorie burning activity? Swimming. Often overlooked, swimming burns a TON of calories, works your muscles, and is easy on your joints.

3. Workout with someone who's in better shape than you are. Why? They'll push you further than you'd push yourself.

4. Forget flat and embrace steep. It's time to add some hills into your routine. More toning and fat loss.

5. Eat spicy foods. Spicy foods have been shown to REV UP your metabolism.

6. Eat more fat. By eating good fats earlier in the day you will be less likely to binge eat at night.

7. Chunk it, 10 minutes at a time. Don't have time to 'exercise' for 30-60 minutes? Well if you take 10 minute chunks and spread them throughout the day they'll equal 30-60 minutes of exercise and calorie burning.
