An hour a day might keep the pounds away...
The following are apparently based on a person weighing 70 kg, doing any of these activities for half an hour;
- Dusting...70 calories
- Gardening...176 calories
- Grocery shopping...106 calories
- House cleaning...106 calories
- Laundry...70 calories.
- Mowing the lawn manually, no ride along...141 calories
- Playing with kids at the playground...141 calories
- Cooking...70 calories
- Shoveling snow...211 calories
- Hoovering...70 calories
- Raking up leaves...141 calories
- Walking while pushing a pram...70 calories
- Ironing...75 calories
- Window cleaning...110 calories
- Mopping the floor...157 calories
The correct number of calories burned do differ from person to person, but it does look as if a turn about the house might beat circuit-training at gym...Happy hoovering!
