Calories Burned by Household Chores

 9.Walk Your Dog
Take your four-legged buddy for a stroll and you’ll both benefit. Walking for 30 minutes at just 4 miles per hour, or a 15-minute mile, chews up 135 calories if you’re 125 pounds and 200 calories if you’re 200 pounds. Rev up to 4.5 miles per hour, and you’ll burn 150 calories at 125 pounds and 222 calories at 200 pounds.

10.Move to a New Home and Unpack
Don’t put off unpacking your boxes after you move. Just 30 minutes’ work will burn 105 calories if you weigh 125 pounds and 155 calories if you’re 200 pounds. If you cancel the movers and carry the boxes yourself, you can torch 210 calories if you’re 125 pounds, and 311 calories if you weigh 200 pounds.
