Game your way to better health
According to an Overseas Woman’s Fitness magazine in a section titled "100 Ways to burn 100 Calories" No. 71 on the list was "Play some vids" Instructions were, quite a bit stereotypical, Go over to your boyfriends house and get on his Playstation 3. In-accurately assuming that woman actually do not own such devices.
Said magazine also went as far as stating that playing video games burns as much as 50% more calories than "athletic" sex. This happens to exclude the Wii and Dance Dance Revolution.
Anyway, with evidence scientifically backed by the British Medical Journal,a measly 40 minutes of thumb tapping on that game pad will burn 100 calories, and according to no. 55, Wii gamers burn an additional 40% more calories than the other gamers.
So after some quick mathematics we can deduce that 1 hour of gaming burns 150 calories, there for Wii-ing will burn off 210 calories, so basically one hour or hormonal entertainment will only give you 75 calories burnt off, looks like the female gaming community may just start increasing at a much faster rate and well men, I guess it is time for us to start hiding the PS3 now hey.
