People
who indulge in Halloween candy can burn off calories and have fun,
being productive at the same time. Leigh Crews, a fitness trainer for
the American Council on Exercise, said the average amount of popular
candy – one Almond Joy Snack Size Bar, one Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup or
six Tootsie Rolls – is about 100 calories. To burn off the calories of
one Halloween treat:
| Dance for 20 minutes. | Dig, rake, plant and weed in the garden for 15 minutes. |
| Jog in place for 12 minutes. | 15 minutes of intense weight training. |
| Walk for about 15 minutes. | Bike for 10 minutes at 12-14 mph. |
| Wax your car for 20 minutes. | Play a virtual sport or exercise games. |
| Shop at the mall for 41 minutes. | Bounce on a trampoline for 27 minutes. |
