anyone know if it burns any additional calories working in a food prep job for 8 hours? (and NOT eating the junk you make! lol)

enter food prep into the cardio here and see what you get...not sure how accurate it will be, but I have seen people who add that to their daily exercise data, so might be worth checking
ok just tried it and for 480 minutes it said I burnt over 1000 calories, so there you go0 -
It does burn calories but if it is part of your work then your body is used to it and I would not enter it as exercise. Only exercise should be counted as exercise.
But if you set your profile up as sedatary then many here would say it is ok to add.
