TIDBITS OF WISDOM: |
( For Us Semi-Sedentary Folks or should I Say Not In The Rock Climbing Category.) |
The University of Pittsburgh conducted a study and found that |
people who lost weight and kept it off reported burning 2,800 calories a week to do so. |
Couch Potatoes don't panic --be advised that you can burn '32' calories per 30 minutes of watching TV; maybe more if it's the Jerry Springer Show. |
60 minutes of reading can burn 64 calories. |
25 minutes of ping-pong will burn 106 calories |
55 minutes of shopping will give you a whopping 134 calorie burn if you stay away from the food concessions in the Mall. |
30 minutes of biking at 10 m.p.h = 191 calories |
15 minutes of walking at 3.5 m.p.h. = 64 calories |
This is my favorite! |
50 minutes of gardening and weeding will yield a 265 calories burn. |
NOTE: |
Cutting back on the MUNCHIES will help I'm sure. |
Home exercise equipment, like a treadmill, can help plenty in the calorie burn area but you have to use them! Mine is looking more and more like a clothes rack then a piece of exercise equipment. My husband is seeing more exercise equipment, nearly brand new, in the local recycling center every week. |
Here's a tip: Check out the dump and yard sales before investing big bucks! |
