Genie47 1st Gear June 17, 2004 Share June 17, 2004 According to studies, 20-25min of car washing will burn off 100calories. Now assuming it is a full wash and wax job (wash, surface prep, wax, buff...the works). That will be 3X100 for one hour (60min assuming 20min burns 100cals) = 300cals. A 3-hr job will burn 3X300=900cals! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord 1st Gear June 17, 2004 Share June 17, 2004 (edited) Interesting info...

Genie47 1st Gear June 17, 2004 Author Share June 17, 2004 Got this from Food and Nutrition Website. Physical Activity of the Week > Car WashingIs the winter dirt covering your car and has the winter mud dried on your car floor? Then it is time to take some action. Instead of taking the car to a carwash, enjoy a sunny day and manually wash your car yourself. If you do not have a hose and an area at home to wash your car, there are several areas that provide vacuum cleaners and hoses that can be used for manual car washing. Check for locations in your area and set a date to get motivated. Car washing will contribute to your daily physical activity and you can burn anywhere from 250 kcal to 420 kcal per hour depending on your body weight. Therefore, why not bring a bottle of wax and a few towels and wax your entire car. You are not only working out your arms and legs, but are also getting a shiny bright car. It is advised to consult with your physician before participating in new physical activities. This means car W&W can kill unhealthy sedentary lifestyle people! Better bulk up first .
