It's the Spring Cleaning Workout!

Sure, you would be hard-pressed to find a woman or a man who says that they actually enjoy the thoughts of spring cleaning,

But, if you just take into consideration how many calories are burned while you are doing your spring cleaning, then you may be a little more excited when spring rolls around this year.

The actual amount of calories burned will depend on your weight, gender and age, but there calculators that you can find online (FitDay or NutriStrategy) that will help you to calculate your actual calories burned.

So dust off your mops, break out the cleaner and begin to sweat off the weight!
