in Fitness and Exercise
I work at a department stores and I am on my feet for 4-8hrs a day and am constantly walking around the store. I am kind of curious to calculate how many calories I burn at work. Would I count this as cleaning or what?

    I would probably account for it in my activity setting rather than trying to log it as exercise. It's hard to know how much you're burning while working since it tends to be up and down - not a consistent activity level.

    I'm pretty sure it doesn't count toward exercise because it's your regular routine. :frown:

    My suggestion is getting a heart rate monitor. They look like wrist watches, not bulky and rather affordable. Great little tool for keeping track of calories burned during a period of time.
