    I count cleaning in my cardio too! It's really surprising how many calories are burned just doing normal day to day stuff!

    Isn't that stuff technically counted in your *normal burning*??

    I thought we should only count actually working out? or no?

    Does washing dishes get your heart rate up? Maybe I'm doing it wrong....

    You probably burned 3-4 calories justing sitting there typing up this thread.

    Seriously, why are you so excited?

    Why so negative? :laugh:

    I TRY looking at the fun/positive side of things more often just to pass the time! ^_^
    Isn't less stress on things good for people? :flowerforyou:

    It all depends on if you have a crap ton to do while listening to music and
    jamming out while having a good time! :happy:
