Pillar of Wellness - NEAT

Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT) is the energy expended for everything we do that does not include sleeping, eating, or exercise; and ranges from simple things like standing and fidgeting to moving about.
​
Research has shown that you can burn more calories applying NEAT to your daily life than other other formal activity, just by moving around!
​

​TRY THESE PRACTICAL STEPS FOR NEAT:
​➡️Stand more. Start by attempting to stand or move about for 5 to 10-minute increments while you complete various daily activities.
➡️Pace the sidelines at your kids' footy, netball practice etc
➡️Carry your groceries instead of pushing a trolly
➡️Walk briskly whenever you can. Walking is an excellent strategy for weight loss!
➡️Pace or walk while talking on the phone.
​➡️Find ways to integrate standing and moving activities – a little here and there.
