There are other things that will burn more calories such as cardio and HIIT. And a weight lifting routine will tone you much better. -------------- She sits and wonders why.....no more.

I personally do power walking in our neighborhood with my son in his stroller. And have been incorporating HIIT with it... I start out at a good pace and then every other block i increase the intensity by walking faster... if you want more infor on HIIT there are several good articles posted here... just type HIIT into the fitbuddy
