Honestly I’ve seen some attitudes and articles that “housework isn’t exercise” and… I’m guessing such people don’t do much housework? At a minimum, it could often be a lot of walking, which is fine low to moderate exercise.
Have you ever found housework (or chores) to be good exercise?
Yeah that’s kinda what I meant, I should have been more explicit. If you have a house, even just the daily cleaning and sorting, taken together, is quite a bit. A proper cleaning you do once a week or so if you do it in one session gets you pretty exhausted. And people rarely recognize it as such, plus of course we rarely do it in one session.
I only started noticing after my ex moved out and I established Saturday morning as the time I do all the weekly cleaning up, all in one go.
