Who does not like to be slim and healthy? Everyone wants to. But the general opinion that most people have is that losing weight and burning calories is a very difficult task and needs extensive workout.

However, this is not true. You do not really have to go to the gym to burn calories and keep yourself fit.

Even if you join a gym, there will be times when you have a busy day and might not be able to make it there.

So if your regularity in working out is not maintained, you might not be able to burn the necessary calories that you are aiming at. Especially for women, it becomes difficult to make it to the gym after all their household work.

Now what is the solution to this problem? A simple workout at home can help. A small workout and a great pay-off at no expense can be a wonderful solution.

In this article we shall discuss 8 ways to burn calories fast at home. But before that, we would also like you to know that there are certain kinds of food that can also help you to burn calories.

The first and foremost reason why you gain more calories is because of the type of food you eat and the quantity of food you intake. Having a control on these aspects itself, will refrain you from gaining too many calories.

Now let us focus on the 8 methods to burn calories fast at home:

1. Vigorous Love Making:

The best exercise that can help you burn at least 100 calories within an hour is to have vigorous sex with your mate. Every part of your body is exercised in this process and hence it is an easy and interesting way to keep yourself fit. Repeat this healthy dose of exercise with your partner every day.

2. Running:

The major muscles that are involved in running are the legs and butt and these happen to be the biggest calorie and fat burning muscles in your body. Hence, you can obviously notice that the shape of a typical runner is always lean and sleek.

This is a great workout that can even be carried out at home on the terrace or lobby if you are unable to go out. Just a 30-minute run can burn as much as 374 calories. To get the best out of this exercise, swing your arms close to your body, don't lean forward, and keep your feet low to the ground.

3. Skipping:

Another easy workout that can be done at home is skipping. Use a rope with handles that reach just under your armpits when you stand on the middle of it. Now jump with your feet slightly apart and body upright, and keep your jumps low to the ground. This workout also stands on the top of the list because you can burn as much as 340 calories in just 30 minutes.

Alternatively, if you do not have a skipping rope, just do the same jumps rope free and you yield the same benefit. To make it more interesting and to boost the process, you can switch your speed between fast and slow and also keep changing your styles by jumping with one foot alternately and then two feet.

4. Dancing:

Another excellent metabolism booster, with fun included, is dancing. The key factor here is to keep your tempo high by playing fast beat songs and not resting until you complete your workout. The reason many people prefer this workout is because this not only burns your calories but also keeps your mind free from stress and makes you happy. Moreover, this can be done at home with ease. Today, many people have become aware of physical fitness and are taking to dance to stay healthy.

Zumba is something that we commonly hear these days and people are willing to do this because it is easy. The best way to do a dance workout is to begin with an inspirational song, move to fast beat songs and then slow down the beat at the end to cool down. You can lose as much as 221 calories in just 30 minutes by dancing.

5. Vigorous Walking:

Another easy-to-do workout at home on your terrace is vigorous walking. The key factor here is that it should not be a leisure walk with a companion. Just walk briskly with no conversations. To get the most out of this exercise, take short, quick steps, keep your torso upright and pump your arms back and forth in time with your stride. This burns about 170 calories in 30 minutes.

6. Move Things Around:

An easy way to burn calories and at the same time get your work done at home is to do some furniture re-arranging and liven up or change the layout of your favourite room at home. A 30-minute of this workout can help you burn enough calories.

7. Sing And Laugh:

Make your workout more interesting. Gather your pals at home, sing aloud and have fun. Remember, singing can burn about 136 calories in an hour. Giggling and laughing merrily can burn another 67 calories in just one hour.

8. Gardening:

Weeding and seeding can help you burn calories too. Uprooting the unwanted weeds for 25 minutes will burn 127 calories and planting some new seedlings for about 15 minutes can burn as much as 77 calories. So go ahead and make your yard tidy. This workout keeps your mind engaged and happy too.

Also remember, tapping your feet or pacing can burn hundred more calories than being still. If you are a tennis or shuttle player, practice this at home every day for about 30 minutes to burn calories.

Cleaning your bike or car can also be a great workout to get rid of too many calories. If you have stairs at home and you walk up and down these stairs, you burn calories too! So it's simple and easy. Stay fit and healthy!
