The rate at which a person’s body burns calories for energy is referred to as their metabolism. This is determined by a number of factors, including your age, gender, heredity, body fat, muscle mass, and degree of activity.
You will burn more calories both at rest and during activities if your metabolism is high. Here are some lifestyle adjustments that will rev up your fat-burning furnace and help you reach your weight-loss goals faster.
Steps to follow to boost your metabolism to speed up weight loss:
1. HIGH-INTENSITY WORKOUT:
High-intensity exercise raises your metabolism and fat-burning for hours, not just for the time you exercise. Try a more rigorous gym class or incorporate short bursts of jogging into your normal stroll to reap the benefits. Other workouts you might attempt include HIIT, running, swimming, and cycling. A practice that alternates periods of high-intensity and low-intensity exercise can also help you improve your metabolism.
2. HYDRATE:
Water is required for proper metabolism. According to one study, adding 1.5 litres of water to daily consumption lowered average weight and BMI in a sample of overweight women aged 1823. Your metabolism may stall if you are even marginally dehydrated.

3. SMART SNACKING:
Maintaining metabolic balance is easier when you eat at regular intervals. A little meal or snack every 3 to 4 hours keeps your metabolism revved up, allowing you to burn more calories throughout the day. People who snack on a daily basis eat less during meals. Otherwise, a person’s body may burn calories more slowly and store more fat cells if they consume a lot at once and then go for long periods without eating.
4. DRINK GREEN TEA:
Though no studies have definitively established it, some evidence suggests that green tea extract aids in the promotion of metabolism and fat melting. It is unquestionably a better option than sugary juices, and it also contributes to your daily water intake.
5. WELL-RESTED BODY:
Sleep deprivation has been linked to a significant rise in the risk of obesity. The deleterious effects of sleep loss on metabolism may play a role in this. Sleep deprivation has also been associated with elevated blood sugar levels and insulin resistance, raising the risk of type 2 diabetes.
