Getting more physical activity can keep your heart healthier, your muscles stronger, your bowel movements more regular (seriously), boost your mood, and may even improve your memory and thinking skills. And if none of that motivates you - it also burns calories. Adding more physical activity in your life doesn't have to mean sweating away at the gym, or twisting yourself into a pretzel at a yoga studio. While those are great ways to become more active, there are lots of other easy ways to get moving. Below are some activities you can do on a typical day (while also accomplishing other things!) to burn 100 calories*: 
Activity
Time (to burn 100 calories)
vacuuming
35 min
hula hooping
25 min
sledding
15 min
walking dog (moderate pace)
40 min
sweeping floors
30 min
mowing lawn
20 min
walking/running around the yard with kids
