How to Drop 5K in a Day

Five thousand calories that is! If you're looking for a way to shed those extra calories, this is a great plan but...always check with your Doctor before doing any program or diet.
Your first 1,000 calories are already gone! Kind of. You burn about 1,000 calories a day breathing, and doing daily activities. So you already have a head start - GREAT JOB!
Now for the good stuff...

Get Active
  • 14 minutes of stretching at your desk (50 calories)
  • 10 minutes of walking around the office to talk to colleagues (58 calories)
  • 47 minutes of light office work — that’s right, no slacking (100 calories)
  • 30 minutes of moderate swimming (300 calories)
  • 35 minutes of self-grooming (brushing your teeth, showering, shaving, dressing) (100 calories)
  • 1 hour of passionate kissing (180 calories)
  • 1 hour of fixing your car (343 calories)
  • 1 hour of playing cards (140 calories)
  • 27 minutes of typing emails (47 calories)

  • 35 minutes of shooting pool (100 calories)
  • 30 minutes of working out at the gym (227 calories)
