As part of my job being an OSU Extension Educator, I teach people about the balance between calories in and calories out. Or more importantly, what happens when you take more calories in than you use up. (Hint: your body stores them up. I’ll let you guess where and how.) I have always been a small statured person, which sometimes has people believe I have a good physical activity routine. However, I struggle with this habit and would much rather eat less (or more sensibly) than move more! I really wish it worked this way, but being active does more than keep your waistline in check.
But who doesn’t like to burn some calories while also accomplishing a needed task? So, here you go...a list of calorie-burning household chores!
