Four loads of laundry up and down stairs, changing bed sheets, changing litter box, vacuum, scrub sinks, toilets and one bath tub. Sweep bathroom floors and much, much, more! Do I need to break every task into a calorie burning time? or can I lump it all together and figure it out that way?

    Definitley log it all together under cleaning, vigorous. I do it all the time, especially if I am all hot and sweaty after. I once used my HRM while I was cleaning, and you really do burn alot. xx

    Agreed as well!

    Plus, I have some housework if you REALLY want to burn more calories ;-) j/k
