Do You NEAT?

     of course you do! the question is do you do enough. there is exercise-aerobic, weight lifting, what one does at the gym, etc. and then there is NEAT-nonexercise activity thermogenesis. this  is the energy we all expend doing things like gardening, house work even fidgeting. research shows that by doing more of these types of activities during the day we may burn an extra 350 calories without even thinking about it.
     NEAT is not a replacement for exercise but it does count towards our daily calorie burn. are you sitting? then tap those feet, swing that leg, roll your neck-it's all NEAT.

ps: for my mentor who always said that these types of activities don't count-well they do!
