12 Easy Ways To Burn 100 Calories

Life can be full of extra responsibilities, we tend to push aside our workouts until things are done. Instead of forgetting your exercise plan, use a little imagination.

I'm providing 12 easy and everyday ways to burn 100 calories. You might want to add one per day or a few per week. Focus on the cumulative effect. If you perform even just one of these activities per day, that's 700 calories burned in a week and 2,800 burned in a month. That will make a difference.

Here's my top 12 in no particular order. Get moving! And while your at it spruce up the home too! 


1. Walking
-- The easiest and one of the most natural movements known to human beings. Fifteen minutes of brisk walking will burn approximately 100 calories. A brisk daily walk at lunch time or after work will make a difference.

2. Vacuuming
-- 25 minutes of vacuuming around your home will burn just about 100 calories.


3. Gardening
-- Like to garden? It's the digging and raking that will reap the most fitness benefits. These are the bigger calorie burners when it comes to gardening. In fact, you can burn up to 100 in just 15 minutes with these movements. 

4. 
Dancing -- 20 minutes of dancing at a moderate pace will burn 100 calories. C'mon, you know you love to do it, so have some fun with it.


5.
