Yoga: to Boost MetabolismExercise to Raise Metabolic RateOne way to boost the body's metabolism (the rate at which it expends energy at rest), is to perform a regular fitness workout - such as yoga. Yoga: Faster Metabolic RateThe benefits of a faster metabolism include faster weight reduction and fat loss. It also helps maintain a normal weight level in middle age. In addition, a regular yoga workout helps maintain normal blood glucose levels, as well as normal cholesterol and blood pressure. Yoga: Calorie-BurningAbout 45 minutes of yoga burns about 180 calories. In one year, this physical fitness workout uses up a total of 65,700 calories - about 19 pounds of body weight. Yoga and DietAs well as taking regular yoga exercise, try to follow a healthy, balanced diet. All weight loss trials show that a nutritious calorie-controlled eating plan is essential for long term weight control. |
