Washing the car

I was wondering how many people add car wash under your exercise totals. I just finished washing washing my truck while wearing my hrm and was surprised to see it come out as 325 calories burned in 1 hour. Should I add this or just know that I have some extra calories at the end of the day.

    I added it under 'light cleaning'...since you wore your HRM you can just enter the amount of calories burned!

    lol i own a detailing buisness so im washing, waxing, polish cars all day long... (10lbs polisher and putting about 20lbs pressure on it at 3000RPMS alot of fun n sweat!!)

    Never punched them into the calorie thingy though as i just consider that as my regular daily burn not activity...
