Exercising in a fasted state (no calories for 8hrs), changes the way your body uses fuel. With no sugar reserves, excess stores of fat are used up as the main fuel. It also makes you more efficient at using fat for fuel in the future, even when carbohydrate IS available. #fitfam
Standing Up you burn 1.5x more calories/hr than sitting (20 to 50cals, size dependent). Without even moving! Think of that at your desk, on a train, or in a queue. What are you waiting for ...up you get!
