Exercise from peeing.

HAHAHA WHAT?!

That has to be the most bogus thing i've seen on this site.

What's amusing is that somebody actually went to the trouble to figure that out.

Walking to and from an outhouse is the same as just walking for like 5 minutes... so I bet if you walked at a slow speed (the speed you might walk if you were going to the outhouse) you really would burn 212 calories/hour... not that bogus.

How far is the outhouse hope I do not have to go very badly. This could be a problem?

Don't ask me; it was like that when I got here :-P

What about hopping to and from an outhouse?  Assuming you really have to go you might hop instead of walk, and I bet you'd burn more calories :)

Run!!

Did you have to shovel the snow to get there?

Do you burn more calories if your knees are clenched together while you walk?

 I don't know if you burn more calories, but I bet it works your abs.

Get back to you in 2 minutes, I need to go.

It's like those compound-type exercises.  Works a bunch of different muscles at the same time.

 Good point.  Next time someone asks what the best exercise is...I know what I'm saying!

HAHA, wow. what a way to specify. couldnt you burn the same amout going out to the shed and getting something? I mean come on.

Maybe it burns calories to smell that disgusting stench from the outhouse?

LOL

My favorite is the one called "Multiple Household Tasks All At Once - Moderate Effort. You get a nifty 274 calories per hour for that plus some terrific visual imagery!

I am so sad this thread died 

I've been contemplating how many calories you would burn making your way to an outhouse at night should you also be carrying a flashlight and watching out for bears...

all at once? at a moderate or intense level?

I seen that too while looking up walking. Apparently I burn more calories walking to the outhouse than I do walking 3 miles per hours on an incline...How fast does one walk to an outhouse? I mean, doesn't everyone have a different speed? Ah, I'm thinking too hard about this.

I guess that would depend on whether you saw a bear or not.  Or if the bear saw you.

Edit:  Whatever happened to nieto?  Do you think he fell in?

Um, simple math. Say it takes 5 mins to walk to the outhouse, then that's only 42cal. More realistic.

Well BMX, it's not that simple.  It depends on how badly you have to go, and there could be bears, or snow, or roots, or crazy barefoot bogeymen running around in the woods.
