 British Military Fitness has shared the best calorie-busting cleaning and decluttering tips, to get in shape from body to bathroom!

Sweeping
Arm yourself with a sweeping brush and really get going, you can burn up to 136 calories in 30 minutes!

Dusting

Giving the whole house a good dusting should work off 170 calories in an hour.

Washing floors
Get some elbow grease into washing the floor, and you could burn up to 187 calories in 30 minutes.

Cleaning windows
Giving your windows a brand new sheen and digging that grime out from around the edges is well worth the reward – 334 calories gone in an hour!

Vacuuming
Vacuuming can be one of the more active chores and if you do the whole house, you’ll cover a lot of ground! Put your back into it and you’ll burn around 238 calories.

Washing the car
Skip the drive-through car wash and burn around 153 calories by doing it yourself!

Deep cleaning the bathroom
Blasting the bathroom of soap scum and mould can also blast off up to 258 calories. A good reason to get the rubber gloves on if we ever heard one!

Moving furniture
Burn 200 calories in just 30 minutes by switching around the big things.
