Household workout?

Question

This is kind of in relation to my other question about craving surpressents.

I would love to know how many calories you burn by doing household chores?

Everyday i am hoovering,dusting,washing the floors, tidying up after my daughter, shopping and putting rubbish out and at weekends i do a thorough clean of the house and the washing and ironing.

Anyone have any ideas as to the amount of calories these jobs burn? Id love to know

Answer 1

Of course, it depends on how much you weigh and how much you get into it. Here's a couple links that may help you get an idea of how many calories you're burning, and ideas to burn more (if you want):
