You can lose weight even if you stay at home during the Dragon Boat Festival, and the fat-burning effect is just as good as doing housework

　　1. Brush the bathtub

　　It does take some effort to scrub the dirt off the bathtub. As long as you keep scrubbing hard for 15 minutes, you can burn 100 calories, which is equivalent to doing 30 "jumping squats". Brushing the bathtub especially requires the use of shoulder and arm muscles, and it can also exercise the biceps.

　　2. Wash clothes

　　Throw piles of clothes into the washing machine, take them out of the washing machine one by one, and hang them up to dry one by one. Just washing clothes for an hour can consume 78 calories, which is equivalent to doing 100 sit-ups.

　　3. Wash the dishes

　　Washing dishes for 15 minutes every night for a week can consume 560 calories, which is equivalent to swimming 2,500 meters. Doesn't it sound like washing dishes is less annoying?

　　4.Change bed sheets

　　Changing the sheets sounds simple, but it can also be a difficult task. If a family has 4 beds, changing sheets for 15 minutes can consume 65 calories, which is equivalent to walking 1 kilometer.

　　Changing sheets for 15 minutes consumes approximately the same amount of calories as walking 1 kilometer.

　　5. Ironing clothes

　　Ironing clothes for 3 hours a week can consume 420 calories, which is equivalent to taking a Zumba aerobic dance class. Standing for a long time will consume calories, and when ironing clothes, evenly exerting force on the clothes will also use the strength of the arms and abdomen.

　　6. Vacuum the floor

　　Vacuuming the floor for 30 minutes can burn 90 calories, which is equivalent to 15 minutes of kickboxing. In addition, walking 10,000 steps a day is beneficial healthy , if your house is big enough, walking around and vacuuming the floor can also increase the number of steps you take every day.

　　7. Sweeping and mopping the floor

　　Vacuuming the floor is a bit relaxing, but if you really want to break a sweat, you can switch to sweeping and mopping for half an hour, which can burn 145 calories, which is equivalent to using a treadmill for 15 minutes.

　　Sweeping and mopping the floor for 30 minutes can burn 145 calories, which is more than using a vacuum cleaner to clean the floor.

　　8. Wash windows

　　Cleaning windows for one hour consumes 334 calories, which is equivalent to doing 40 push-ups.

　　9. Weeding

　　Weeding with a lawnmower for one hour can consume 325 calories, which is equivalent to 20 minutes of high-intensity interval training (HIIT).

　　10. Gardening

　　Don’t have anything to do on the weekend? Go tidy up your long-abandoned yard! Acting as a gardener in the garden, 30 minutes of pruning flowers, watering, fertilizing, hoeing and other gardening work can consume 213 calories, which is equivalent to riding a bicycle on flat ground for 45 minutes. Hoeing in particular uses the muscles of the shoulders and abdomen.

　　This is what you should eat during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday

　　1. For breakfast, it is best to eat whole wheat bread, multigrain bread, etc., with fresh milk. Eat slowly, for at least half an hour, and do not watch TV. This may have the opposite effect and make you eat more. Eating slowly can help you feel full sooner.

　　2. After you have breakfast, or before you have breakfast, if you want to buy groceries, you have to walk. I believe that most homes will have a vegetable market or supermarket not far away, so it is best to walk briskly for half an hour.

　　3. When buying food, try to choose fresh vegetables and meat. Do not buy pickled food. It is not only difficult to digest, but also not conducive to weight loss. The nutrition is not good enough. Pickled food has a serious loss of nutrients.

　　4. You must eat at noon. Even if you don’t want to eat, you must force yourself to eat something. You can boil a pot of soup and add noodles to cook. You can buy whole wheat noodles and add low-calorie vegetables such as Chinese cabbage.
