Question of the day
How will you burn extra calories today?

Im not blowing smoke… your posts are always so helpful and perfect for me – a person who needs a blog to get straight to the
… point! Haha, I’m in such a rush, I can’t control my fingers on the keyboard 😉 Sharing!!
Bex, I should see how many calories we burn typing and texting!!! lol
and yea I’m kinda a short to point type of blogger
I have the attention span of a gnat!
yet your videos hold my attention…I wanna be a combo of you and MizFit when i grow up..oh wait, I”m older than both you!
yessss hula hooping for the win. gotta get one of those 🙂
I think I burn a ton more than 100 calories jumping rope for 18 minutes lol. I’m out of breath at minute 6. But then again I’m going fast and not leisurely. I’m trying to master the “double unders”.
since winter is basically spring this year in these parts, my recent obsession for burning calories AND HAVING A BLAST AT THE SAME TIME — roller blading.
it’s also humbling how much balance I have lost over the years…
Bex your the best
I just shoveled snow for an hour so I think I’ve got the bonus calories in the bag for the day 🙂
Great post! Good tips and I’m with Bex – it was great reading something to straight-to-the-point. Thanks for these!
Wonder what doing laundry burns? (In my house that means dragging a basket full of dirty clothes from the second floor down the basement. Nine times out of ten, it also means dragging the clean load I find in the dryer back up to the second floor. LOL)
I plan to burn calories with a quick run!!!!
Nice . I’m totally pinning this for later use.
Love it! And I like that you included hula-hooping…I don’t know if I could do that activity for 20 minutes haha. I did tabata today so I’m hoping I burned more than 100 cals!
Loved this!
Vacuuming the house now that is something I did to do, haha
my place is a mess!!
love finding new ways to be active, right?
Sometimes all it takes is adding just a little bit here and a little bit there! It all adds up! I add walks to my work week. I walk to work (in nice weather) from where I park my car (about 2 miles) and I walk during my lunch break. It’s a nice break from the stress and work monotony.
