N.E.A.T. stands for non-exercise activity thermogenesis. N.E.A.T. is the energy expended for everything we do that is not sleeping, eating or exercising. So many people think they must spend hours in the gym in order to change their body composition and although exercise is essential and amazing for weight management, increasing your N.E.A.T. by simply parking farther away from the grocery store or making multiple trips to and from your car can also be extremely beneficial. My challenge for you, is to think of ways you can increase your N.E.A.T. If you have an Apple Watch or Fitbit, consider tracking your average amount of steps/day and try to increase that weekly average.
This is a fantastic article. Thank you!
