The kitchen may be one of those tasks that you may be tempted to put off.
Not only does the filthy oven benefits from being thoroughly cleaned.
50 minutes of vigorous cooking burns more calories than 50 minutes of ballroom dancing or cycling.
And it burns more calories than cleaning any other room, according to research.
A kitchen requires 276 calories, a bathroom 173, and a bedroom 154, on average, to clean.
Each of the ten professional cleaners was given a Fitbit and was allocated five homes.

The collected data indicates that 50 minutes of kitchen cleaning burns more calories than an hour of ballroom dancing (219) or a one-hour bike ride (292).
Professor Amanda Daley, a professor of behavioral medicine at Loughborough University, stated that housework “may get your pulse pounding” in response to research from the United States-based cleaning firm Homeaglow.
However, it does not aid in weight loss because it utilizes a very small number of muscles.
Therefore, Joe Mitton, a Cambridgeshire-based personal trainer, recommended. ‘Rather than leaning over to clean anything, squat down and hold the squat.’
