The availability of junk food at every hour of the day, and the hundreds of zombie creating television channels are not the only culprit of American obesity but today’s technology is as well. Most of our daily chores and errands have become so automated by technology and household appliances that it seems difficult to even think of ways to burn more calories outside a gym. One way to live less automated and burn more calories is to wash the dishes by hand.

Wash the dishes to burn more calories. Almost every household has a dishwasher these days. In the old days people use to wash dishes by hand. This manual process actually allows you to burn more calories in your day. You can burn 75 calories or more just by washing the dishes. This may not sound like much but if you washed dishes by hand regularly these calories can add up.
Not only does washing the dishes burn more calories, but for some it can also be therapeutic.
