    Go to Sworkit.com (Get the phone app if you want to tie it to your MFP account), pick a type of workout, pick a length of time. And go!

    On a regular basis when i have been sitting in front of the computer for to long I set my Bodymedia to tell me when I hit 100 cals, jump up and start doing weird random cardio, running in place, pretending I am jumping rope, body weight squats, planks, push ups, burpees, jumping jacks, fast feet, lunges, jumping side to side, whatever. Normally takes me about 8-10 minutes to burn 100 cals.

    If you don't want to do it all in one shot, do your quickie workout during 2 sets of commercials.

    Burpees.
    Either or combo of both will burn 100 calories in about 15 minutes or less.

    Turn up the music and dance around like a fool or jump rope!

    Dancing like a fool to high energy music is always advisable. It's a wonderful full-body cardio session.:glasses:

    giggling at the water fast threads has helped me drop weight.

    It's just water weight...doesn't count.

    Zumba! Also second the idea of dancing about flailing like a fool, it's by far the quickest and easiest way to burn calories :smile:

    Hey everyone! I need some suggestions on how to burn 100 calories inside my own home. It's raining its butt off outside so I cant go for a walk or jogging. If it makes any difference, I'm 5'4, 125 pounds.
