The holiday was a great reason to cheat; here is how to get back on track
We hope you celebrated yesterday—we sure did. If you overdid it at a barbecue (again: we did), here is how you can burn off your binge.
If you had a serious cheeseburger—huge patty, gobs of cheese—you may have downed as many as 1,500 calories. You’d have to run 11 miles to burn it off. A better solution: Switch from your long, slow run for this cardio training program to burn more calories faster. And for your next burger, try this fat-burning favorite from the Belly Off! Challenge.
Washed down your burger with a few beers? Gut-growing calories can hide inside a six-pack (ironically, covering your six-pack with dangerous belly fat). Don’t give up beer completely—use this guide to find great-tasting, lower-calorie alternatives for your next cookout.
If you finished the day with ice cream, don’t fret—dairy is one of the 12 power foods that can help you burn fat. And every diet can use a cheat meal. (Even cheat meals can be improved—check out our guide to smarter dessert choices.)
