Hello,

Does anyone know of a specific exercise to speed metabolism? I have been on a diet for around 6 weeks and although I have lost 5lbs, 4 lbs of this was in the first week!

I don't do much exercise other than walking and occasional cycling/swimming so I know I need to do something!

Cheers all!

Hi,

Well afraid to say if you lost 4lbs in ytour first week thats going to be mainly water weight instead of fat, so you have probably lost 2-3 lbs in total, but hey thats still good going for 6 weeks!

The best way to boost your metabolism is if you can do some kind resistance exercise. The reason for this is that when you cycle or swim thats when you burn your calories, when you stop thats it you metabolism goes back to normal. With resitance or weight training even when you stop doing it your body takes many hours to recover and while it is doing that it is burning calories and that raises your metabolism. You might not want to join a gym, but you can do simple exercises at home, there is plenty of info on the internet.
hope this helps.
