You do not have to join a gym or starve to death to lose weight. You can easily lose weight at the comfort of your own home provided that you follow a good and correct weight loss plan. The number of pounds you can lose depends on how serious you will take your efforts and how committed you will be to your plan. The absence of a formal plan, like joining a gym or a class, does not mean that you do not need discipline. If you want results you need to have discipline otherwise you will fail.

So, let’s see how to lose weight at home. There are a number of options available depending on your house. For example if your house has stairs then you can use the stairs as an exercise equipment, if you have a garden then you can use the garden both as a place to workout and as an activity you can do to stay physically active. Read below to get some ideas on what we mean:

Climbing the stairs is a great way to get fit and lose weight at the same time. In fact walking up the stairs is as effective a riding a bike. So if you have stairs at home use them as an exercise (10-15 minutes per day).

Another difficult and effective exercise is cleaning windows. By cleaning windows you exercise the upper part of the body very well (hands, neck, back, abs) so once a week clean your windows. This will make your house cleaner and your body thinner!

Cleaning your car: People who have a house with a garage can use it to wash their cars. Washing your car is a great exercise because you exercise a lot of muscles at the same time. The more muscles you exercise the more calories you lose.

Making your garden: If you have a garden then you can do a number of exercises that involve both gardening and exercise. Let your imagination free and get the best of both worlds.

The secret of making the above ideas work is how often you will do them. You need to set out a daily plan that will involve one or more exercises. Do not just rely on the normal use. For example it is normal that you will use the stairs a number of times per day but this is not your objective. Normal usage is your bonus. On a daily basis you need to set 10-15 minutes where you will use the stairs for exercise only. The same rules apply for the other activities you can do.

You keep delaying doing exercises, you find excuses and reasons every time not to do them. Although at the end of every year you decide that you will not let your gym subscription expire without using it, you have not yet managed to keep the promise that you make every year. Why?

You lack the motivation to go to the gym. You have to get motivated somehow. To get you more motivated to work out more I have compiled a list of health benefits of exercising:

1. You will maintain your youth.

2. You will look better.

3. You will feel much better.

4. You will have a more restful sleep.

5. You will plan time better.

6. You will prevent weight gain. Exercising is the best fat burner.

7. You will have more energy (after the first week)

8. You will be calmer; you will easily manage crisis situations.

9. You will maintain your health and will prevent serious diseases such as osteoporosis and heart disease.

10. You will disconnect, relax.

11. You will have more confidence in yourself.

12. You will be less tempted to touch unhealthy foods.

13. You have great chances to quit smoking.

14. You will be less stressed.

15. Your sexual life will have everything to gain…

The list goes on and if you allow yourself 10 minutes, you will find more personal or general reasons to exercise. However, we often avoid doing exercises. Why?

1. We do not like to exercise. If not you tempted to do fitness and aerobics, there are numerous other options: water gymnastics, dance, yoga, jogging, etc.

2. We do not see results. You never see the results after the first session. Let your body get used to the changes and give it a general term of 3 months to decide whether or not you want to keep going to the gym.

Exercising is the best weight loss tip on which all the weight loss experts agree. You have to exercise if you want to lose weight and stay fit.

Just for the sake of clarification: when we say “cheating” with your exercise regimen, we do not mean that you can slack off from working out and still be able to achieve that toned body-beautiful physique. Nothing is quite that miraculous, even if it’s promised by things like bioslim. What we really mean is that you can exercise less frequently or with less intensity but still burn off as much calories as possible. How can you achieve that? Here are a couple of tips how.

1. Warm up and cool down your muscles always. Yes, you can immediately get on the treadmill, or start following your aerobics program without so much as a single stretch as a form of warm up exercise. But did you know that by warming up for at least 15 minutes, you can expend more calories than you normally do? This state is due to the fact that muscles of your body becomes more responsive to your exercise regimen if given enough time to prepare for a more grueling workout. At the same time, cooling down your muscles gives your heart ample time to slow down as well. This helps increase blood supply to your muscles without that usual feeling of muscle fatigue or strain. And while doing so, calories are still being conveniently expended away too.

2. Take the time to really rest. Exercising can burn off a lot of unwanted calories, but so can sleep and rest. When the body reposes, the digestive system goes on hyper drive. This helps increase your metabolic rate organically, which in turn, releases more expendable calories. The body then takes these calories and uses it to soothe your tired muscles, heal wounds and aches, and even helps strengthen bones and ligaments. All these are involuntary actions which use up as much calories if you have been brisk walking for 30 minutes.
