To clean my house.
But I really want to work out instead.

Do you think I combine the two? Maybe through Prancercise?

Other suggestions?

    Housecleaning is in the list of cardio exercises. Check it out I even found one for cleaning toilets in FitBit.

    Camel toes make me giggle. I used to call it a camel foot before someone corrected me and told me the correct term was camel toe. I digress....I say jog during all of your chores. If you do anything where you have to lean over, then turn that into a push up. That may work quite well.

    I'd been thinking that prancercise was an MFP made up thing all this time, till I just googled it!

    Holy feck!!!

    Well, the dust bunnies are just going to have to go back to sleep tonight! I've got other plans and they DON'T involve a broom!
