Living an active lifestyle isn't just about going to the gym everyday. Being adventurous and spending your off time in the right way can be the difference maker in seeing the weight change you're looking for.
According to Self.com the average person will burn around 250 calories in 60min of general household cleaning.

The changes don't stop there. Think about different things you could be doing in your down time to not only burn calories, but also to be productive. If indoor cleaning was 250 calories per hour, imagine how many calories you'll burn when you're outside working on your yard.
Obviously all cleaning, yard work, and labor work are, without a doubt, going to help you cut the pounds. But, don't confuse these things as a replacement for proper weight training and cardio. At the end of the day, eating clean and working out on a regular basis is still the best way to look the way you want.
