5 Fun (and productive) Ways to Burn 200 Calories!



Massage Your Partner
Set the mood, grab some oils (even olive oil will do) and get to work massaging your partner.  You’ll burn calories, create a deeper bond, and you never know what other calorie inducing activity may occur!

Here's my Sex & Exercise book on Kindle: Exercise & Sex


Get Into Your Garden
Gardening is great exercise, burning calories, strengthening and stretching muscles, and it’s great for your brain, too! Weed, hoe, plant, rake, it all adds up to exercise and a more beautiful patch of nature.


Spring Clean
Get the grime off those dirty windows and let the sun shine in! Move the sofa and other heavy furniture and dust underneath. Get outside and wash the car, clean the patio, scrub the deck! Heavy cleaning burns upwards of 200 calories in just 45 minutes!


Turn the Tube Off and Turn the Music On
Shut down the gadgets and fire up your favorite dance songs. Get moving, dance a jig, cut the rug, and burn tons of calories, release stress, and have some fun! The whole family can join in on this one.


Head to the Park with the Kids or Friends
Pack a nice, light lunch, some healthy drinks, a blanket, a football, bad mitten gear, or a frisbee! Run, move, play, have fun while you burn calories in the fresh outdoors. 30 to 45 minutes can burn at least 200 calories!
