    No sirree, do not log anything but steady state cardio, unless you just want a diary of what activities you do. In that case, you would put a big fat ONE as calories burned (on the food diary I use yo can put zero, but I don't think you can on MFP).

    I would only log excercise if its more than what I normally do on an.every day basis. Iv always done housework but if I was to spend 6 hours springcleaning, moving furniture, cleaning large windows, scrubbing tiles etc then id log it.

    But, that's not exercise, that's activity. Things like that come out in the wash, and the calories are too hard to calculate.

    No, unless you do it kung fu style like Jackie Chan. Otherwise it is very inaccurate.
