Got Weekend House Chores? Cleaning burns more calories than you might think! 🧽 Here’s the breakdown:

  • Light cleaning (dusting, sweeping): *170–250 calories per hour
  • Moderate cleaning (vacuuming, mopping): *200–300 calories per hour
  • Heavy cleaning (scrubbing floors, moving furniture): *300–400 calories per hour

🧹*Based on a 155 lb person. The number of calories burned while cleaning for 1 hour depends on the intensity of the activity and your body weight. If you presently weigh more or less, the calorie burn will generally be more or less.
What’s the #1 chore on your list? I gotta scrub the bathroom floors.
