Feeling stuck at home and unable to get out to the gym? Don't worry: There are still lots of ways to get your exercise right around the house and burn some calories.

While you won't be 'exercising' in the traditional sense, performing typical household chores will nonetheless help you burn lots of calories.

A great calorie burning activity is to get out into the sunshine and mow your lawn. If you don't have a lawn you could always do some other form of gardening that requires you to be moving around. Pull up weeds, plant some flowers or bulbs. Your choices are limitless!

Calorie-burning can take indoors also. One idea is to spend time organizing your closet or your dresser drawers. Sort through your clothing, deciding which ones you wear and which ones you don't (and probably never will). Bag up the unused clothing and carry them to a local Goodwill or charity. This is good, not just for your body, but for your emotions also.

And hey, while you're sorting, you can always consider organizing a yard sale. Comb through the house and garage and find all of those things that nobody ever uses. Have a dozen or so boxes on hand and organize them accordingly into these boxes. Post signs around the neighborhood advertising the sale. There are lots of ways that hosting a yard sale can burn calories - and you'll also make money in the process!

If you have children, why not take them to the park and join in the fun. You can run around with them going from activity to activity. Play on the swings and kick your legs, climb up the slide and come back down again. Not only is taking your children to the park a fun thing for all of you it is also a great calorie burning activity.

If you don't have children but you have a dog, then get out the leash and take the dog to the park instead. Take a ball to throw, which is great for the arms, and run around with your dog. Your dog will love the attention and the exercise and you are taking part in a great calorie burning activity.

Redecorating can be a great calorie burning activity. All the lifting and stretching is a great way to increase your exercise level and burn more calories. Make sure if youre lifting that you are doing it right, you dont want to end up in bed with a bad back! So get out the paint pots and the rollers and give your whole house a makeover. Not only will you be taking part in a great calorie burning activity but your house will be a fresh and inviting place to relax in afterwards.

Anything that you do normally around the house can be turned into a calorie burning activity; just remember to put a little more effort in the things you do and get your heart pumping. When your heart is pumping fast and hard you know you are getting a good workout!
