The wild thing? I'm trying to keep it clean. It is cardio. 30 minutes is about 150 burned calories. Just sayin' :smile:

    Oh my. That sure is going to make me think twice when my MFP buddies log cleaning. Especially if it's with "vigorous effort" :laugh:

    i would say it depends...if you being a starfish, no i wouldnt count it...also if you do it everyday then i would consider it part of your lifestyle BUT if you only do it once a week, then YES add it as cardio hahaha

    You guys are hysterical!! I'm never entering cleaning in my log again! Oh, wait, yesterday I entered cleaning because I went up and down a ladder to my attic about a hundred times. No, REALLY. A ladder!! To my ATTIC!

    I've never heard that one, Starfish :P lol!!! That's great!! It's even funnier when everyone is trying to "beat around the bush" with clean words :P This topic made me seriously lmao!! I would log it. If it's not something you do daily, it's extra calories burned, so why not (lol @ "cleaning" by yourself") hehe

    Honestly, I "clean" enough to consider it a normal part of my lifestyle and isn't something I track. But, one day we decided to see how many calories it did burn and he wore the HRM. It really wasn't an impressive amount of calories. And not near 150 calories per half hour.

    thanks for sharing the website nammyl. The 150 calories I posted was based on my weight.....

    on Dr. Oz last week I he said it took 58 minutes to burn even 100 calories doing it.... And cleaning (actually cleaning lol) you could do about 28 minutes and burn the same 100 calories. ha ha good post though :O)

    petting - 15 calories
    "cleaning" standing up - 230 calories
    big O - 59 calories
    Faking It - 312 calories
    Running from partner's hubby - 1015 calories

    Am i the only one impressed that you can clean for 30 minutes? 10 minutes of cleaning is what I usually do. However, I can clean like a sailor on a ship in those ten minutes!
