Does Spitting Cut Calories?

Ok, so right off the bat I understand the faulty logic going on in the title question. But hear me out.

I run...often...not long distance, but atleast four times a week for about 4 miles. Not bragging, just setting the scene. Now the last few weeks instead of swallowing the nasty, mucus-like spit that builds up in my mouth I've been spitting it out. Now here's the part where logic flees the building. Remember, you've been warned. Since I've started my spitting habit my muscle definition has increased. In short, I'm becoming more cut. I haven't changed my diet. My workout routine has not change in a month and a half, and to be honest, it's not terribly different from the one I had had been doing for the previous year and change. The only real difference here is my new habit of running while spitting.

So now I emplore you, men and women alike, if you want to tone up during this culinary and dietary landmine period we like to refer to as the holidays, eat right, workout often, and spit like you play first base for the Yankees.


Btw, this blog will be about primarily sports. My job affords me access to some pretty sweet sporting events (Montreal Canadiens, Patriots home games, College hockey and hoops o'plenty) and I'd love to wax poetic about the games, the sights and scenes of being there, and the social weirdness that is a professional locker room (don't worry, no pictures.) Plus, some stuff about the inside of the TV biz, regardless of the level, is pretty darn interesting. So I'll essentially use this as a dumping ground for most things sports wise. I hope to update this semi-regularly, and to try and stay equally as entertaining. Thanks for reading!
