Too tired to go to the gym today?

Take a hot bath instead!

A new study found that taking a hot bath can actually burn as many calories as a thirty minute walk.

British researchers had participants take hour long hot baths or ride a bicycle for an hour.

While riding a bike burned more calories, taking a bath still burned around 140 calories.

The study also found other possible health benefits to taking a hot bath like lowering blood sugar peaks after eating and boosting the immune system by reducing chronic inflammation.

My, my, my…Another blow to the haters and losers. I’ve always been a huge bath guy. I’ve had people tell me that you’re bathing in your own filth. I’ve had people tell me that I’m never fully clean. I’ve had people tell me that your dead skin is floating on the top of the water. I don’t care about any of that. The fact of the matter is that I like to relax after a long day in the tub with a glass of whiskey or wine, so shoot me again.

I had no idea that I was treating myself to a grueling workout while I cleaned up a little bit as well. I feel bad about lying to people for so long. Often times people will ask, “hey Chaps, do you workout, my good bitch?” I stopped working out a while ago so I’ve always said no. I’m just fortunate enough to get fat build up in all the right areas. Minus my butt. I have a shitty butt. I can admit that amongst friends. Anyway, turns out that I’m a big ole liar. I do workout. I take a nice bath. I burn some calories and smell the relaxing, homeopathic relief of lavender. Feels good to care about my health.
