Thanksgiving is arguably one of the most popular holidays of the whole year. And, with good reason! Who doesn’t love a whole day dedicated to pumpkins, potatoes, and pie? But if you’re worried this Turkey Day will be the undoing of your stretch pants, never fear — your hot tub is here! Simply soak in bubbly bliss to increase your metabolism — just in time for Santa’s cookies and hot cocoa.
Reduce Stress for a Metabolism Boost
Simple changes can add up in a big way when it comes to helping your body run more efficiently. Cortisol, also called the stress hormone, can hinder weight loss and even prevent muscle gain. It’s what’s responsible for that “fight or flight” reaction in stressful situations. For some people, it can make weight loss extremely difficult — even with proper exercise and diet. While the holidays are definitely stressful, take back some control of those pesky hormones by soaking 20 minutes a day for less hair pulling and more skinny jeans.
Cut Carb Cravings!
Of course, Thanksgiving is full of wonderful, delicious, carbs. They often seem irresistible, but we all know that plating mashed potatoes, next to sweet potatoes, next to dressing leaves little to no room for those green beans and other healthier options. But, soaking in a hot tub before you eat helps reduce those carb cravings. It may even help give you the willpower to put only one kind of potato on your plate this year.
Jump into Exercise
Did you know that exercising boosts your metabolism for the rest of the day? Not only that, but as you gain more and more muscle, your metabolism will stay higher. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, or need a place for a safe, low-impact workout, your hot tub is the perfect tool to get that rocking beach body by next summer.
