Hi my name is Michael Quebec and today's topic is everyday ways to burn calories. Actually
calories are units of energy and so to be honest, just the act of breathing is using
calories. But our focus of course, is how to burn calories presumably for weight loss.
Remember when you are trying to think of everyday ways to burn calories you are calorie counting
so every activity has a calorie count value. For everyday ways would be things like housework,
garden work, parking a little farther then you normally would so you would have to walk
to your destination. Taking a flight of stairs as opposed to, as opposed to taking the elevator.
So again all of that relates to having one of these types of calorie count charts. Let
me say this again, you can get one of these online, or you can find them in a calorie
count book in the health section of your local bookstore. For instance doing gardening, that
burns about two sixteen an hour. House work burns about, about one hundred and sixty,
one hundred and fifty somewhere around there. You'll have to see a chart for all those activities
but the basic idea is staying active and moving. Anything that you can do to keep moving, parking
a little farther to walk, running up a flight of stairs as opposed to taking an elevator,
lifting things, safely. Doing your housework, just a simple act of moving that, that broom
or moving that vacuum burns a lot of calories. So just to keep it short and sweet, keep moving
that will burn your calories.
