    there are plenty of calorie calculators on line thru a search
    yes everything adds up, washing dishes , swinging a hammer , ping pong, not sure how many calories are burnt looking up calories burnt , but is worth a try

    There is an entry for housework in the Mfp database. I would certainly count painting because I always end up sweaty when I paint. Not sure if it is in the database though, you might have to make your own entry, or count it as something there.
