Burn calories while practicing!



You want to lose weight, but can't seem to find time to excercise because you have to practice your instrument?

Well, burn calories while playing your instrument!

I just found out that playing piano for 3 hours you burn off 510 calories! Sweet!

Rick Wakeman

Richard Christopher Wakeman (born 18 May 1949 in Perivale, London) is an English keyboard player best known as the keyboardist for progressive rock group Yes. Originally a classically trained pianist, he was a pioneer in the use of electronic keyboards and in the use of a rock band in combination with orchestra and choir. He purchased his first electronic keyboard, a minimoog, from the actor Jack Wild. Wakeman was able to buy it for half the regular selling price because Wild thought it did not work as it only played one note at a time.
