Question:
Does a giving a massage help to lose weight?
I'm only asking b/c I usually give massages to my family when they need it, and I use alot of strength when i do it. It tires me out after a while so...... but if it doesn't, then does it burn calories?
Answers:
Any activity burns calories, but it is not going to take the place of a thirty minute cardio session with toning exercises. Those getting the massage might actually be just as much of a benefit as you are because muscles need attention to. . .to burn those calories yourself rely on a workout.
