Quotes to ponder:
“It’s no good powering through an early morning workout if all you’re going to do is sit on your butt for the rest of the day.”
“These somewhat trivial-sounding physical activities can actually have a remarkable impact on our metabolic rate and, as a result, stimulate greater energy expenditure over time.”
“By moving regularly throughout your day you can keep LPL levels stable - and support your body to burn fat.”
