Jumping Jacks-10 Calories/Minute


Do any of you watch the biggest loser? I have watched it since season 1 and love the inspirational stories of people changing their lives, getting healthier, getting off medications, changing their careers after learning to like themselves and more. This season, a trainer tip from Jillian, one of the trainers, discussed doing something during every commercial break. I have even posted about this.. how you can do abs or marching or high leg lifts or just anything that gets you moving during commercial breaks.


Jillian mentioned that you can burn 10 calories per minute doing jumping jacks. If you did that every commercial break during their show, you could potentially burn 300 calories just during that show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on, how easy is that!!!!! Get up & do something.. anything during those commercial breaks & burn some extra calories!!!!!!!!
