You may already know that everything you do burns calories—breathing, sleeping, standing, and all of the workouts you love. But what does it take to burn just 100 calories? You may be surprised by how little—or how much! To put it all in perspective for you, we’ve gathered 50 different ways how to burn 100 calories.
