Crocs have been suggested by one website as a great accessory for people when they are doing the not-so-glamorous activity of cleaning their car.

With lent upon us it is likely that many people could be looking to give up chocolate and get fit for spring.

Therefore, those who hate working out should ensure their motor is looking squeaky-clean as washing a car burns more calories than doing a 40 minute run, Shudoo reports.

The website recommends Crocs as being the perfect accessory for the job, as "they are waterproof and will obviously make you look fantastic, especially if youre wearing hot pants to match".

Last month, Florida-based Fitness instructor Rosalind Neilen devised a new high heel workout which involved doing exercises in high heels.
