People Also Ask

What does NEAT stand for?

It stands for non-exercise activity thermogenesis — the calories you burn through everyday movement like walking, fidgeting and chores outside of formal workouts.

Why does NEAT matter for fat loss?

Because everyday movement can burn a significant number of calories, so increasing your NEAT, such as taking more steps, can help create a deficit.

How do you increase your NEAT?

Move more throughout the day — take more steps, stand more, do chores and generally stay active outside of your training sessions.
