Читать книгу The Little Book of Calorie Burning - Литагент HarperCollins USD, Ю. Д. Земенков, Koostaja: Ajakiri New Scientist - Страница 25

Put a bit of Latin gusto into your arguments. Wild arm movements and petulant stomping will get your point across much more clearly than calm, quiet discussion – and you’ll burn an extra 30 to 60 kcal an hour in the process.

Try not to resort to Boxing, Martial Arts or Wrestling (q.v.) though; outside the sports arena they could get you arrested. Instead, think like a toddler and be prepared to have a full-blown tantrum, writhing around on the carpet, foaming at the mouth and refusing point blank to back down.

Hot-cross buns (187 kcal each), Jammie Dodgers (437 kcal for 100g) and rum punch (284 kcal for a tall, 250 ml glass) are all good fighting foods. You’re going to have to drag out your disagreement for a long time to burn off their calories, though. Make sure you choose a worthy opponent with plenty of flab of their own to burn.
