Add Weights to Your Routine
Whether you’re just walking upstairs or have a few minutes to lunge across your bedroom, consider adding in weights to really amp up your daily activities. But don’t be tempted to go too heavy! “Once you know the heaviest one you can lift, you’ll want to choose a weight for your actual reps that are around 60 to 70 percent of the weight of your heavy one,” says Greg Justice, exercise physiologist and author of Mind Over Fatter.
