    The great thing about myfitness pal is it can gauge how many calories you have burned. Go to excersice find cardiovascular and type in cleaning. It will give you how many calories you have burned.

    ok I have a question on that. If I do it for 2 hours do I put in just 2 or put in 120 for minutes? I'm new and didnt really understand how to do it right.

    I suggest to get more of an accurate amount, you should purchase a Heart Rate Monitor, that;s what I purchased. Becuase MFP give an average of what you should have burn, which was never correct for me.

    I believe it is done by the minute, so I would say put the 120 min. :)
