You are actually burning calories while sleeping. So it stands to reason that when you are sitting, standing and having spasms, you are burning calories. Bodies submerged in water that is cooler than your body temperature is another way to burn calories. As your body heats up to compensate for the temperature differential, you burn calories. Having an infection in your body is a poor way to burn calories, but you can burn calories even that way. Best Wishes W

I'm always thinkin it's a light-form of a workout, but i may be off base. I purposely cause spasms during my days at work, sometimes cause theyre ready to explode if i'm still too long, but sometimes just coz i want to muscles to contract. I also push my chair, do i burn a lot doing that??? -tony c5rc6 >>
