What’s the best exercise to fire up the metabolism

70% of your metabolic rate is determined by your muscle mass therefore it is vital to include exercises such as the squat

Squats

• Place feet shoulder width apart
• Place hands out in front with one on top of that other (if using bodyweight)
• While maintaining an arch in the lower back, slowly bend your knees
• Be sure to keep shoulder blades retracted
• The majority of the weight should be through the back half of the foot
• Do not let the lower back round or the weight shift to your toes

Perform 3 or 4 sets of 10 to 30 repetitions
