    I think a quickie would probably be considered HIIT.

    A coma burns 1,717, according to MFP's BMR calculator. But you have to do it all day.

    Typing on the computer burns 102 calories an hour, evidently. I knew being on this site all the time had some sort of benefit.

    Hmmmm I would have thought sex burned more than 67 calories in ten minutes:wink:

    Everything thing we do burns calories, breathing, sleeping, sneezing, smiling, laughing, crying, our bodies burn calories around the clock. It's all part of our TDEE. So hopefully nobody is going to log sitting in the bathtub as a calorie burn now lol:)))
